The band put out their second reissue this week as a new treatment of “Reckoning<\/a>” hit the stores on Tuesday. The new disc also includes a concert from the ensuing tour. Strangely, I have not gone out and bought the CD yet.<\/p>\n

I will. It’s only a matter of time, you know. There’s no real reason for my hesitance. I just didn’t feel like it. I love Reckoning, but have heard it a million times. Nothing gets me going like an REM show from pre-1985, but I have heard much of this one and already. I might grab it this weekend sometime.<\/p>\n

The band has taken the occasion of this release to get the word out about the CD they have planned for this fall. Live from the Olympia<\/a> will compile some of the songs from the five nights of “working rehearsals” the band played in Dublin in 2007 while in the midst of recording “Accelerate.”<\/p>\n

Fans can get a peak at the CD on July 7 when “Reckoning Songs from the Olympi<\/a>a” is released digitally. This four-song sampler will include songs from the band’s second album which were played during the Dublin shows. No idea if they also appear on the two-CD set to be released later this year or if these are bonus tracks. Either way, I have always thought that “Reckoning” provided many of their best live songs since the songs basically came about on the road so I’ll get this one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
