Beat Poetry For Survivalists is the inspired 2020 collaboration between Luke Haines, acclaimed for his sharp wit and pop folklore, and Peter Buck, legendary guitarist of R.E.M. With Haines’ satirical storytelling and Buck’s unmistakable guitar work, the album brims with irony, surrealism, and clever pop culture references across an eclectic rock landscape.
Balancing driving analog synths on tracks like "Apocalypse Beach" with the raw energy of "Last Of The Legendary Big Foot Hunters," this record captures a messy, loose, and utterly engaging charm. Each song offers listeners a wild journey through modern folk tales and smart, offbeat lyricism, making Beat Poetry For Survivalists a must-listen for fans of both artists and anyone craving rock with an adventurous edge.
