I so agree with you. Even though I didn't discover them until 1992, in high school.

Ever since "Life's Rich Pageant" in 1986, they have been going downhill. "...Pageant" was their last great album. From 1981 to 1986, R.E.M. made music the likes no one had heard before. Sure, their music recalled and borrowed riffs from The Byrds to Velvet Underground to Television, but the way they went about it was so unique.

Wow, I hadn't heard about the new album. I just read that Jewel is doing the same thing (not that I'm a fan of hers, but COME ON!). That whole era of music (early 80s) was so amazing. U2 and REM will never be the same. :(
