bisogna vedere se sua o di qualcun altro. Finora fa il produttore.
credo abbia comunque bisogno di una band di supporto
ammesso che voglia fare musica rock poi
Beh certo staremo a vedere

Country Feedback, che pezzone.
Stanno facendo un tour di interviste promo per la riedizione di Out of Time, evidentemente la Warner è convinta che ci sia ancora potenziale da spremere.
L'ho riascoltato, ed è un album diverso, scomposto, disordinato, ma ad avercene ragazzi. E stavolta ci ho ritrovato Country Feedback, un pezzo che in un best of dei REM effettivamente ci va. Viene prima di altre nello stesso stile, tipo E-Bow the Letter e Blue
ma anche Me in Honey, ottima, anche se non sembra una chiusura canonica. Ma appunto, Out of Time non è certo convenzionale.

R.e.m. + Sleater-Kinney
Da Pitchfork:
Show
Filthy Friends, the supergroup made up of Sleater-Kinney’s Corin Tucker, R.E.M.’s Peter Buck, Scott McCaughey, Bill Rieflin, and Kurt Bloch, have announced their debut album, Invitation. It arrives August 25 via Kill Rock Stars, and accompanied by new single “The Arrival.” Listen to that below. Earlier this year, they released a new song, “Any Kind of Crowd.” That followed their anti-Trump song “Despierta,” which was released as part of the 30 Days, 30 Songs music series.
He enjoys reintroducing the band’s music to the world—just not in the form of a reunion tour. (I had to ask, though it might have sounded more like a plea than a question.) “That’ll never happen,” Stipe says plainly: no wavering, hemming or hawing. “I can’t think of a single thing that could make us come together to do anything publicly.”Why so certain? “Because we did what we did. To try to put the band back together for any reason would just be sad and wrong.”Would he ever make a solo record? “I don’t even know what a solo record is these days. So the answer is no. But I want to use my voice again. I really like it."
