What was wrong with Monster?
it's still cool to hate on REM I guess
meanwhile people rave about the National.....christ I MUST be old

SO many people panned Monster at the time, I loved it though. I just thought this was too standard and lacked the harmonic song feel that I love about REM.

the best "live" multimedia show I've ever seen. awesome.
green & automatic for the people got me hooked.

not bad....but i'm from the 'document' era....so this doesn't do much for me...Green and Document are probably my fav REM albums...

Actually I heard Accelerate yesterday and really liked it. Sounded way more like old school REM than later, shite REM. I think they knew this would be make or break for them. Also the new Black Francis mini album sounds more like the Pixies than anything else Frank Black has done in years. Old school revivals, I'm loving it.

I loved everything up till Automatic. I loved most of Monster, a little less of Lo Fi and don't like a single thing since. I don't know if it was the drummer leaving?
The new song sounds promising.
