Former REM drummer Bill Berry’s new band The Bad Ends announce debut album
The Bad Ends – featuring Mike Mantione of Five Eight and former REM drummer Bill Berry – have announced that they will release their debut album, ‘The Power And The Glory’, early next year. It’s the first LP recorded by Berry since leaving REM in 1997.Songs for the record were initially written for a Mantione solo album, but a chance meeting with Berry in Athens, Georgia – REM’s home town – led to a jam session, which in turn resulted in The Bad Ends being formed.“In very early 2017, a chance pedestrian encounter in downtown Athens found me face to face with one Mike Mantione”, says Berry.
