New R.E.M. song clip + album cover.

[Jakebert]

Yeah, I know these threads tend to fall off of the board soon after I make them, but for the other R.E.M. fans, the "Accelerate" cover has been revealed, as well as a 30 second clip of a new song called "Supernatural Superstitious".

It's a tad generic, but I like it more than the last few. Notice that there's no dots.

And, finally, Supernatural Superstituous. (http://www.murmurs.com/node/2063)

If the rest of the album are as good as this 30 seconds, I'd say we're in for a good album.

Not so keen on the album cover but the 30 second preview was pretty good. Quite looking forward to this.

[Sidewinder]

I don't mind it. I don't put much stock in album covers anyways.

But I'm definitely looking forward to this album.

[Sidewinder]

Bump. The Accelerate tour dates have been released. REM's hitting Atlanta Saturday, June 21st with Modest Mouse and The National. Price info and ticket sales haven't been announced yet, but I'm already saving.

[Jakebert]

Lucky jerk. They're not playing anywhere near here so far.

[Sidewinder]

Take a trip to the ATL!

Yeah, I know these threads tend to fall off of the board soon after I make them,

Maybe just make (or find) one R.E.M. thread that you can bump whenever something new comes down.

[Jakebert]

I made on last time, but I couldn't find it. Granted, I suck at searching for them, but yeah.
