Yeah a greatest hits thing. Meh.

Rock Action by Mogwai

Slanted + Enchanted

So not even the new Nas?
You like Nas more than I do. By far.

Yeah I know. Pavement tho.

Dude, you’re just wearing sweatpants. Even Nas would be sweatpants. You’re somehow beyond that. You’re like, wearing boxers and a T-shirt to a job interview level not giving a fuck.

Shrug. Sonic Youth - Live at the Continental Club today.

Well whenever you do get up the energy to click Spotify and listen to the (counts in head) FOUR albums by artists I know you love that have come out in the last four weeks, hit me up with a pm.

some Loverboy on YouTube.

R.E.M. REVEAL

An album I listened to once maybe, then tossed aside.

Not sure why I gave it another go. But it's really growing on me. Five or six really, really good songs. Wondrous production, clever chord changes and a few glorious melodies. One or two really boring songs, but it is an R.E.M. record, so that's expected. The more I listen, the more I like.

Who's with me?

No one?

Fuck you guys.

Germany requests you listen to

It's The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)




I actually never listened to Reveal. Probably never will ;) I prefer listening to the older albums anyway, but I haven't heard them in a while either

Done.

Good band

Stipe cares more about spitting out the words than keeping on the beat.





They are easy to get sick of. Even with their classic stuff, I listen to a few seconds, skip to the chorus, move on to the next song.

Which is why I'm so pleased I sort of have a "new" R.E.M. record to listen to. UP isn't so good, Around the Sun super sucks and the last two are overrated.

For years I THOUGHT Reveal sucked too. I was wrong.

I always like Reveal quite a bit. I like Up to, but Reveal is way better. Also this is a coincidence because I came here to post that I am listening to Automatic For The People!

That's a good one. I'd lose "Ignoreland" but otherwise a super solid record. In my top 3 probably.

Have you heard the "r u talkin rem re: me?" podcast? If not, get on that. For reals.

Yeah "Ignoreland" doesn't really fit.

I actually subscribed but haven't listened yet haha

!!!

Lol

REM albums good enough to warrant a spot in my old guy hard copy music collection:

Murmer
Life’s Rich Pageant
Green
Out of Time
Monster (fuck you, it’s good, sometimes even *gasp* good as hell!)
New Adventures in Hi-Fi

...

‘sit. (I think)

Hey I think Monster is great.

Built to Spill - Live

Listened to Monster last night. I was stunned I liked 3/4 of it. I always remembered it sucking. "Let Me In" is especially good.

What I like about R.E.M. is I get sick of them and sell all their CDs, then a year or so later I can buy them all again for fifty cents each at the discount bin or library sale.
