Definitely a post-punk album.

I’ve always classified early U2 as post punk.

U2 was heavily influenced early on by punk, specifically the Ramones

No. But it has a little punk element. The Refugee being the closest to true punk

Every band originating in that era started off wanting to be the Sex Pistols.

Fun to see bands evolve. The Police come to mind. Synchronicity is way different
