R.E.M. 'Accelerate'
Published 4/1/2008 at Variety.com
Music Reviews: Vying for the title of most accurately titled album of the year, R.E.M.'s latest is a joy ride in a muscle car with care and caution thrown to wind. It's about rhythmic speed and a lack of polish; the guitars blare, Michael Stipe's voice is raw and untamed; there is nary a sign of post-production polish.
