"Bang and Blame" is a song by the American alternative rock group R.E.M. It was released as the second single from the album ''Monster'' in 1995. It is the last R.E.M. song to reach the top 40 in Billboard's Hot 100 chart, peaking at number 19, and also their last number one on the Modern Rock Tracks chart. When the album version of the song finishes, an untitled instrumental featuring vibrato effects on the guitar amp and amplified slap bass techniques follows, lasting approximately 30 seconds from fade in to fade out. The song was the most successful single by the band in America since 1991's "Shiny Happy People". After "Bang and Blame", the band did not have a single that matched its success. Despite its success, it was left off of ''In Time: The Best of R.E.M. 1988–2003'' and ''Part Lies, Part Heart, Part Truth, Part Garbage 1982–2011''. "Bang and Blame" was featured in the ''Cold Case'' episode "Blackout" as well as in the Danish mini-series "Charlot og Charlotte" by Ole Bornedal (director of "Nattevagten"/"The Night Watch"), the ''My Mad Fat Diary'' episode "Not I" and the ''Melrose Place'' episode "No Strings Attached". The song was also used in "Weird Al" Yankovic's polka medley "The Alternative Polka" from his 1996 album ''Bad Hair Day''. The cover of the single somewhat resembles the cover of the 1994 Nirvana single "Pennyroyal Tea." ==Track listing== All songs written by Bill Berry, Peter Buck, Mike Mills, and Michael Stipe. ;12" and CD Maxi-single # "Bang and Blame" – 4:51 # "Losing My Religion" (live)1 – 5:24 # "Country Feedback" (live)1 – 5:03 # "Begin the Begin" (live)1 – 3:47 ;7", Cassette and CD single # "Bang and Blame" – 4:48 # "Bang and Blame" (instrumental version) – 4:48 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bang and Blame」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
