"Hollow Man" is the fourth track and second single from R.E.M.'s fourteenth album Accelerate. The music video was created by Crush Inc., a graphic-design and production studio based in Toronto, and posted on the band's website on April 23, 2008.[2] The single was released in the UK on June 2, 2008. The song peaked at number 7 on Billboard magazine's Triple A chart.
This three-track single was scheduled as a CD single in Germany but was subsequently canceled. The B-side "Indian Summer" is however available through download stores. Some three-track copies of the CD single were released as promotional copies.
The music video for the song features a four-frame animated figure overlaid on top of the footage. At Hollowman.tv, the band have encouraged fans to print off copies of the character and photograph it themselves to insert on the video projected behind their live performances of the song.
