wheelco Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 REM Accelerate... well duh! Yep, much better than I'd even hoped. However, as far as other favorite bands, I was disappointed in Stereolab's "Chemical Cords", after loving the last two releases, "Fab Four Suture" and "Margerine Eclipse".
