Anyone listen to this yet?? I downloaded it earlier, and it sounds like a great album. I’ve never been a huge fan, i like a few older songs, but this one is a solid album :tup:

REM hasn’t made an album worth listening to since the 80s.

It’s fine that Michael Stipe is gay just as it’s fine that he has strong eco and political beliefs. Regrettably once he started using these things as a way of promoting the music, it went all downhill :tdown:
