This is totally true, but I love Automatic, Monster, and New Adventures. I’m also a big fan of Accelerate and Collapse.Glorified KC said:
80s REM >>> 90s REMCarryTheZero said:I’ll second that and throw in Texarkana or Cuyahoga!
I love all REM, but their initial work was cutting edge. All of my favorite records of theirs are in the 80s. Murmur and Life's Rich Pageant are 1 and 2 for me.
I wish I was a sacrifice, but somehow still lived on.0 -
Life’s Rich Pageant is the absolute best!0
