Titolo: siamo a 2/3 - 3/4 dell'album pronto

così parlò... Mike a Billboard:

"Two-thirds to three-quarters of the way through."
Its next album, according to the group's Mike Mills, which means it's
on target for a 2008 release, most likely some time in the **SPRING**.
"We've got another three weeks of recording and singing and what
little overdubbing we're gonna do. Michael's got a bunch of singing
and I've got some backgrounds to do, and we've got a couple songs we
hope Michael will finish. And then after the next three weeks or so is
the mixing phase.There isn't a whole lot of overdubbing on this
record. We made an agreement we weren't going to say what it is or not
because we don't want to have expectations out there in any direction.
But, of course, you can go on YouTube and listen to some of the Dublin
shows and get a pretty good idea of where we're going."
Those concerts, he adds, did have a positive impact on the new
material. "They did all the things we wanted in terms of not only
generating excitement for the record but also helped us, I think, to
make a better record. It just really kicked us into a higher gear.
Mills says working with producer Garret "Jacknife" Lee has been
"fantastic. He's just what we needed at this stage of our career. He's
very willing to experiment. He keeps things loose. It's a fun process;
he just realizes this is something we're all lucky to be able to do,
and we're all enjoying it as much as possible." R.E.M. has been
recording with touring members Bill Rieflin and Scott McCaughey, but
Ken Stringfellow hasn't been involved, Mills says, because "we're not
using very many keyboards, and what we're using I do."
R.E.M. is hoping that its next release, the CD/DVD concert package
"R.E.M. Live" from a 2005 show at Dublin's Point Theatre, will also
provide "a springboard" for the new album. Mills says of the Oct. 16
Warner Bros. release, "it's actually so good that it's gonna whet
people's appetite. It's nice to show people that we're still out here
doing great work.

"And it was
really epiphanal to realise as a writer, umm, and a lyricist that
the-, the-the-the words don’t even have to rhyme all the time. If you
find one good one, and a chorus, umm, and you mean it, then all the
other stuff can just be my version of a narrative, which is usually
just pretty straight forward, but even to myself often confusing"

Quoto.
Sarebbe ora che si diano una mossa prima che facciano marcire le canzoni. 
Ben vengano le 2 nuove canzoni, purchè non mi tolgano la mia amata Man Sized 
Wreath.

 shows and get a pretty good idea of where we're going."
Eh il problema delle aspettative quindi se lo sono posto...Pero' Mike 
dice anche che ascoltando le canzoni di Dublino un'idea e' possibile 
farsela:sono quindi abbastanza rappresentative anche delle altre che non 
conosciamo?Sembra di si':incrociamo le dita per gli arrangiamenti e la 
produzione!
Poi si',sembrano lenti,la descrizione delle tre fasi sembra cosi' 
laboriosa :).
Su, ragazzi, su...:)
Ah, nella frase finale dice in effetti che il live mostrera' quello che 
sanno ancora fare:anche quando parla dell'accoglienza dei concerti di 
Dublino, si vede che avevano bisogno di un po' di incoraggiamento e 
speriamo che la pubblicazione del live sia un buon punto per ripartire(e 
arrivare al discoooooo!:) ).
Quando tornano in Italia?Ci stavo pensando ieri...

 "Two-thirds to three-quarters of the way through."
che ricorda un po' quel film con Lino Banfi e i tre quarti di Maradona,
ecc...
