Well according to reports, the band have already started work on the new album. I have had the new REM album on repeat for the last week Peter. I LOVE IT! Seriously! Electron Blue, Make it all OK, Final Straw (which we have all heard a long time ago), Wonderlust and Aftermath are my personal faves off the rccord.
The only weak track for me, is "The Accent of a man" The screaching" is totally uncalled for. I cant stand it. Its the only song I have to skip each time, coz it gets on my nerves.
Keep listening to the album mate, I really like it. Its one of my faves already. It defiately takes a good few listens in my opinion, but I am sure you will like it as much as me after a few spins!

How can you like both BJ and Around the Sun??? I mean, the album is hardly even mid-tempo! You probably like TLFR :P
I won't say the new album is crap, but I don't think it's more than mediocre. I will burn the cd and put it in my car's cd player, but I rarely like an album in the long run if I don't like it on first listen...
I think LNY, Final Straw stand out, Electron Blue is ok, but the rest... yay. You know, I listened to New Adventures In Hi-Fi a lot when I was on vacation, now THAT's the real thing
