Yes..Stipe sucks now..but..damn...they were probably the best rock and roll band for a long time. What was great about REM was somewhat similar to Zep. They both put out a ton of music in a short time that was excellent. Consider REM..10 years..Murmur to Hi. Fi
then consider Zep..1st record to In through the Out Door. 11 years. Just alot of great music.

Hi Fi was their last album of any value. They have fallen soooooooooooo far, sooooooooooo fast. It's become pretty obvious they just aren't the same band without their drummer.

Indeed..I remember reading long ago...I think Stipe said it.. Bill Berry(the drummer) really held the band together.
