R.E.M. definitely isn’t my favorite band of all time, but if I had to pick one group that epitomized my taste in music, it would be these particular Hall of Famers. They’ve just never released anything I haven’t liked. From Murmur to Out Of Time and everything around and in between, the Georgians have woven through countless genres and produced dozens of incredible tracks. Naturally, I’ve been eagerly awaiting their new album, but news on the general direction has been scarce.
According to Billboard, the disc is roughly two-thirds to three-quarters of the way finished, paving the way for a 2008 release. Mike Mills was recently asked for more details about the project, but in typical R.E.M. fashion, he revealed almost nothing. Later this year, the acclaimed threesome will drop their long awaited live CD/DVD R.E.M. Live; so, expect the anticipation to be at a near frenzy by the time their fourteenth album of new material is released.
