According to Billboard, R.E.M.'s "Around the Sun" entered the U.K. charts at No. 1. For the band, it was the third consecutive No. 1 album in the U.K. and seventh in its last nine albums.

R.E.M. The band made the cover of this past weekend's USA Weekend, which is distributed in Sunday papers around the nation. It's kind of a mainstream publication, so it's evidence the band is trying to get the word out about "ATS" in as many outlets as they can. You can read the story here.
