R.E.M's Catapult demo produced by Stephen Hague

 
The oddest thing. This was a demo produced by future New Order, Stephen Hague, making them sound a bit like, a bad New Order. There are all kinds of sounds and effects that you would in no way associate with early R.E.M. It is barely 'of the south'.The song goes nowhere whatsoever with this production and though I think it's one of the weaker songs on Murmur, sounds far better and much more propulsive there as produced by Mitch Easter and Don Dixon.
