I like pre-1985 U2 material. War and Boy being my favourite albums, it all started to go wrong when they tried to break America though.

I don't agree with that, the first two sound quite similar (Boy and October) and the next two sound similar (War and Unforgettable Fire). But you can't really compare the Joshua Tree, which I agree is very overrated, with the likes of Boy.
If you don't like U2 and have only heard recent material, listen to 'New Year's Day', 'Twilight' and 'Like a Song'.
