IMO Spot on Atavan, nice review

It's a grower and a half for me but it helps to have a listening history with them.

It's very good R.E.M., though I think Accelerate is just a bit more consistent.

I'm quite surprised by the generally positive response this has been getting here, for me it's not a patch on Accelerate, and clearly nowhere near their best works.

I think I prefer this to Accelerate actually, slightly, but it's safe to say they won't be doing anything that actually sounds fresh anymore. It's nice and enjoyable for what it is. Discoverer and Überlin are my favs after a few listens.

I wasn't expecting this to be particularly fresh or exciting, but for me it misses the energy and enthusiasm that made Accelerate their best in years. Discoverer is a great song though, very Document-esque.

Looking back on the comment I made last night, & after listening to the album... I realised that I underestimated this album hugely.



Damn good stuff, apart from Alligator_Aviator_Autopilot_Antimatter... that one is something this album could have done without

At this point I have no problem with some refinement over "fresh or exciting". They've given enough, really. ------------------< fanboy

Excellent review, just wish I could agree. I find most of this album painfully average. I like "Discoverer", "Mine Smells Like Honey" and "That Someone is You", but more than those I remember the really awful tracks like "Alligator" and (yup) "Blue". I'll always love these guys, but just not this album.

This review is the tops. Well done.



Really not digging this though. Plus it fills me with the uncontrollable urge to punch Stipe right in his smug little mouth. I have problems.

Great review. Not sure about my rating yet. I loved Accelerate and this might be just as good.

This is such an uneven record. I'll give it a few more listens but Accelerate was def a lot better.

That said Oh My Heart is fucking brilliant. And so would be Blue, but why do they have to ruin it with a Discoverer reprise

Bye R.E.M.



Thanks for the 1985-1996 era.
