I'd imagine that the transition of not having Bill in the group anymore has been really difficult for them. I'm glad they're still going and making music.

Stipe admitting the deficiencies of Around the Sun! so cool that my hero is so self-aware as an artist - "sub-R.E.M." perfect word for it

[@Alienlane99]

Right on Michael. ATS did suck and yes REM are still a GREAT live band...

[@peacefrogx]

sub-rem is still greater than 97% of all the other crap out there. when it comes to these guys it's a matter of degrees of greatness, not 'sucks'

Sub-REM Produced by Jared Fogle

Confession?

[@UncleRabbit1]

A lot of R.E.M. fans are going to kill me for saying this but I think that Michael Stipe needs to grow his hair back down to his neck as well as include a bushy beard, moustache and sport some sun shades, you know look more groovy!

FUCK that girl's scary.
