No Age in Spin Mag.

Hi. I subscribe to Spin magazine and in the R.E.M issue this month they had put a No Age song in the top 20 something list. I wrote about No Age in an earlier post. Their album "Weirdo Rippers" is out. By the way, R.E.M did an amazing job with "Accelerate". Usually when a band comes back and makes new stuff after four years they tend to make a slower album. This was not true for Rapid Eye Movement.The title is quite fitting. Other albums out are the new Raconteurs and the new Black Keys. The Raconteurs one is good but the lyrics are LAME with a capital L! The melodies are sweet but the lyrics are just Jack White having a fun boy time without Meg. Far less sophistacated than "Broken boy soldiers". Then there's "Attack and Release (Keys)" with it's cool sort of sci-fi thing going on. It was recorded with Danger Mouse (as opposed to in a tire factory) who does Gnarls Barkley!
