This has me cheering on the inside, for a couple reasons beyond just more new material:
1. The current political climate in the US could prove to be an interesting source of chatter for Karl to observe.
2. One of my favorite albums of all time, REM's New Adventures in Hi-Fi was also created on tour. I've always felt a strange kinship between these bands, for whatever reason (probably just being a 17 year old when I really got into both), but a chance of that immaterial "road vibe" coloring future underworld tunes is exciting!
