Bill Rieflin's industrial past

You know what's amazing to me? R.E.M.'s current drummer, Bill Rieflin, used to drum for Ministry, the Revolting Cocks, Nine Inch Nails, and KMFDM. One of the great industrial drummers of all time is going to spend this summer laying down the skins for the "Losing My Religion" guys. Beautiful. You think he gets bored during "Drive" or "At My Most Beautiful" and wishes he could really start wailing again, like he did on "Jesus Built My Hot Rod"?


Seriously, though, he's really good. Check out the flourishes he adds to "Supernatural Superserious" live (scroll ahead to about the 5:45 mark):
