U2's early sound was indebted to post-punk but it grew to incorporate influences from many genres of popular music.
Initially U2 usied synthesisers, distortion, and electronic beats derived from alternative rock, industrial music, dance, and hip-hop After the 2000s, U2 returned to a stripped-down sound, with a more traditional rhythm and less obvious use of synthesisers and effects. They music style is very close to the rock and roll style.
Van Morrison has been cited by Bono as an influence and his influence on U2 is pointed out by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
The band formed in Dublin on 25 September 1976. As I have said their music style changed over the years many times and got influenced by many music composers like The Who, The Clash, Ramones, The Beatles, Joy Division, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Elvis Presley, and Patti Smith.
