R.E.M. 'Accelerate' Even More With 'Hollow Man' Video

Aging rock titans R.E.M. continue their career revival with the video for "Hollow Man," — one of the best tracks from the band's speedy comeback album Accelerate. The video has nothing to do with the Kevin Bacon film of the same name. Instead, it's a fast-paced explosion of lyrics and color that looks more like Michel Gondry directing the best American Apparel ad ever. Definitely a step up from their mock newscast for "Bad Day."
