R.E.M.- ACCELERATE: Deluxe Edition- CD & DVD- 2008- Warner Bros. Records Inc.- 093624987727- 700 grn
ACCELERATE is the 14th studio album by American alternative rock band R.E.M., released on March 31, 2008, in Europe, and on April 1 in North America. Produced with Jacknife Lee, ACCELERATE was intended as a departure from the 2004 album Around The Sun. It was their last album to be accompanied by a tour, as the band had decided against touring for their next (and final) album Collapse Into Now before disbanding. A Deluxe Edition of the album was released in addition to the standard edition; it includes a DVD featuring filmmaker Vincent Moon's film 6 Days, which includes behind-the-scenes footage and performances of various songs on the album. Two B-side tracks, "Red Head Walking" and "Airliner," are included as bonus tracks, along with a 64-page book. This is a careful, studied album from a band that knew they were on the brink of losing their audience and, worse, their identity. ACCELERATE finds R.E.M. attempting to reconnect with their music, with what made them play rock & roll in the first place, instead of methodically resurrecting a faded myth. They reconnect handsomely, creating an album the can stand next to work from their peers. As comebacks go, that's relatively modest, but the very modesty of ACCELERATE is what makes it such a successful rebirth as R.E.M. no longer denies what they were or what they are, and, in doing so, they offer a glimpse of what they could be once again. In the decade since the departure of drummer Bill Berry, R.E.M. could seem at times schizophrenic. Their albums of the era, which veered from the experimentalism of UP and reaffirmation of Reveal to 2004's more diffuse, reflective Around The Sun, often stood in stark contrast to the vibrancy of their live act. But here the alt-rock godfathers have resolved that dichotomy with their most focused and satisfying album in over a decade; a collection that doesn't so much revisit the bracing ethos of the band's '80s coming-of-age, as boil it down to its essence and supercharge it with the energy of their contemporary stage shows. That sensibility is evident from the opening track, "Living Well's The Best Revenge," where Peter Buck's aggressive, distortion-drenched riffs and Michael Stipe's gruff snarl set the tone for "Mansized Wreath," "Horse To Water," and "Supernatural Serious"; rockers that bristle with the abandonment and aggressive energy of a band half their tenure. Yet it's no mere blast-from-the-past. The inclusion of the band's recent touring musicians into the session mix, as well as working out much of the material live onstage in Dublin, has yielded something more sonically akin to R.E.M. Stipe's penchant for the lyrically opaque has been largely supplanted by an edgy, articulate passion that variously explores "Houston'"s displaced Katrina refugees, the bluegrass-tinged "Until The Day Is Done," and the more typical, quiet self-examination of "Hollow Man," before exploding in the album's unlikely, upbeat elegy "I'm Gonna DJ," where singer and band find renewed hope in not only music, but themselves. This is released in a transparent DVD case with a 64 page "photocopied" book - 4 booklets strung together using cotton thread - with printed lyrics, credits and photographs. "This will fall apart" is printed on the cover. The DVD includes a 48 min. film of behind-the-scenes footage and performance pieces of various songs on the album. The DVD was authored NTSC region free - without subtitles.
