An REM thread for r.e.m. stuff

[fanofrem]

The new remix of Let Me In is much better than the original mix I think.

 

[Mr. Jackpots]

Here you can listen to the new mix of "Let me in":



To be honest, I love the cleaner guitar, as I can hardly follow the rhythm in the original version with all that (great) noise, but I'd prefer the cleaner guitar with the old everything else. Why remove the organ part and the percussion, ffs??

I like it.

But the original is way better.

I kind of wish there was a studio version of the way they've done it live in recent years.

Guys be aware that the release of the Monster 25th Anniversary download is falling, I have already seen several pages that inform you of its download although they do not lead to anything

 

[FrankD]

Thanks for the info!

The original release of this version crushes me, every bit, the incessant noise, the hopelessness of the lyric, the chord progression, that percussion. Nice to hear another version, but it doesn't compare......especially miss that organ outro. Thanks for the link

Uptempo Mo Distortion is on Spotify.

surprised the album hasn't leaked yet.

 

[gargumma]

Some people on Facebook have found the album in online stores already (Europe, IIRC), and there are some sites, as fishy as can be, offering the whole thing in MP3 too.

Interesting, which online stores?

That new monster demo is amazing. Sounds like a classic REM song.

It's nice, but you'd think they'll put on a song with vocals as a preview track...

I think those fishy sites fake-offering mp3 of the whole thing.
Anyway I'd love to read some description of the demos if anyone heard them already...

"Uptempo Mo Distortion" sounds quite generic, no? Always great to hear something new from R.E.M., but it doesn't have anything distinct as a riff or a bass line. It's just a nice collection of chords. Maybe they would have adorned it a little better if it got more chances with vocals and all.

Still good to get to know, and a good thing they didn't waste any fantastically great potential in this.

Has Monster 25 leaked?

Hi There,
Does anyone have a link to the 5.1 version of Out Of Time?
Thanks in advance.

 

[gargumma]

I see some people have heard the remix for "Crush with eyeliner" already. Not sure how, but I believe it's kind of an advance for people who have bought the upcoming pack on Amazon only. Couldn't find it anywhere else (and I still haven't heard it either).

Not fully sure yet, but I think no.

The Russian tracker has it. I checked minutes ago.

Songs played during the interview show:

0:07:44 What's the Frequency, Kenneth?

0:13:15 Let Me In

0:34:00 Circus Envy (mistakenly introduced as Crush With Eyeliner)

0:53:23 Strange Currencies (fades out part way through for a show identifier, at roughly the half-way point of the program)

0:56:56 Crush With Eyeliner

1:15:50 Revolution (demo)

1:24:07 Hope (for some reason; sounds like the album version)

1:31:29 Don't Go Back to Rockville (I guess they're going through other popular songs at this point... was Hope popular in Germany?)

1:40:09 Your Capricious Soul

1:47:02 Wake Up Bomb as the show concludes

I managed to pick up the Live at the BBC box at my local HMV (Nottingham) for £28.99 today. It was the only copy there at the time. Other branches might have them in stock at that price if any of you wanted to have a look.

Wow. That WAS shocking -- and shockingly good. The previous remixes left me unimpressed, but not this one. Thanks a lot!
