MUSIC NEWS:
Two R.E.M. Things


"What? Huh? Speak, up! I can't hear you. Because I'm old" - These guys

R.E.M. is making some news today. About time. Where the hell have those guys been? They’ve probably been sitting in their castles counting all their money. Unless they hired shady managers like everyone in the 80s. Then they might be making appearances at casinos and county fairs. Well, according to reports hitting the interwebs today, one place they’ve been is recording a new album and according to these same reports that new album will be “old school.”

I’m not sure what that even means. The last three U2 albums were supposed to be “old school U2” and they weren’t and they sucked. So… whatever. I’ll believe it when I see it. Or hear it I guess.

But in real “old school” R.E.M. news, the band released a previously unreleased song from the band’s Fables of the Reconstruction album sessions. The song, “Throw Those Trolls Away” can be listened to on the band’s website or by just clicking here.

I’ll admit, it’s been awhile since I really gave a shit about R.E.M. but I’m going to try to keep my mind open on this new album. But I swear… if they burn me I’ll totally U2 their ass. And by “U2 their ass” I mean I’ll kick them out of my heart and tell everyone I know that listening to them will give you brain cancer.
