I think R.E.M. is one of the best artists of the 80's and 90's (2000's not so much), and it baffles me that they have been for the most part forgotten. Haven't heard the album yet, but these seem promising.

This. They were amazing in the early years, but as of late are only so-so

I think when R.E.M lost Bill Berry they kind of lost their way. It took time for them to really understand how to write without him. Accelerate was a great start but Collapse into Now is really going to be a classic R.E.M album. It really returns to their sound of the 90s. They have some nice rockers, intelligent lyrics, and even some mandolin. The guest spots fit perfectly and once again it shows that Stipe and the group can craft some great songs.
Totally agree. Patti Smith knocks it out of the park on Alligator_Aviator_Autopilot_Antimatter
