What are some of the really good REM albums, I mean we all know the hits. I've just never really listened to an entire album by them.

    Did you mean this to be in other music?

    REM albums:

    New Adventures In Hifi
    Automatic For The People (this is THE album everyone always seems to love...far from my favourite though)
    Document (Just got into this album...it is VERY good)
    Out Of Time
    Up
    Monster
    Around The Sun (Despite some bad reviews, it has some really good songs on it)

    That should do you for now.

    to add on to your user name and clueless post, "what the fuck does that mean".

    R.E.M. is one of the best bands on the planet right now. I just got my Christmas single from them the other day, and the new album comes out on April 1.

    "New Adventures In Hi-Fi" is quite a treat for the ears...recorded live in concert and at soundchecks...it's got balls...and some really great tunes.

    I'm not so sure about that.

    This video answers the question...kind of.

    It is also one of the greatest YouTube video's ever. Just my humble opinion. I talked to a friend who knows Michael Stipe pretty well about this performance. He said Stipe didn't say a word to Letterman because he was busy--nervoulsy pissing his pants.
