12.22.22 | 13 and 14 are deffo too low, 6 is way too high. I am not as reverent of their 80's output but I understand this rating otherwise |

12.22.22 | I feel like 13 and 14 have a few really great songs on them and whole bunch of filler. I was surprised to be enjoying their records post-2000's as much as I did. |

12.22.22 | 1 is def 1 :) 3 gets better and better the older I get |
mkmusic1995
12.22.22 | 3 might creep up to 2 with more listens, definitely loads of great songs on there! :D |

12.22.22 | Yeah I find their 2000's records all filler but fair enough lol |

12.22.22 | I came into my REM fandom alongside the release of Monster, and while I understand it's fairly maligned and deeply flawed, it's up there on my personal list just for the nostalgia.
Out of Time is a fun record with some flaws. Don't like seeing it so low on here but can appreciate why some people dislike it. Shiny Happy People and Radio Song are goofy tracks! I love Belong and Me in Honey.
I think Murmur should be 1 or 2 along with Automatic.
I lump Fables, Document, Pageant, and Reckoning together-- I don't have any preference between any of them. All are good records.
Collapse, Accelerate, Reveal, and Around the Sun are all those 2000 filler records.
New Adventures is a top five record. I think you're just wrong here.
Like Monster, I also like Up a lot and understand it's not popular. Conversely, I don't enjoy Green at all despite what others think of it. |

4.5/5 tier
lifes rich pageant
fables of the reconstruction

mkmusic1995
12.23.22 | I'll have to check Chronic Town, haven't jammed that yet. So far I would say my favorite tracks are Pretty Persuasion, Everybody Hurts, Imitation of Life, Country Feedback and The One I Love. Those are just a few off the top of my head but there's so many awesome songs! |
