I am going to start a new thing as of tomorrow or maybe the next day. For every album I am going to highlight my favorite track and then put together a playlist. That way all my readers can get a sweet taste of the magic that is happening around here. I don't know if ALL OF YOU have been following this news but the US has raided some crazy Mormon compound and taken all the kids away. I am a big fan of that show Big Love, and I think I have gotten a little mixed up about this whole polygamy business. The thing is that in these compounds they love to marry up the little girls at like 13 years old. Now I am all for a grown man having multiple grown up wives, if that is his preference (and theirs) but marrying up little girls is not right.
Which brings me to REM. I never did much like REM, something about Michael Stipe's singing just grated on me. But this new REM album is actually pretty good. It seems much less pretentious than the REM I remember, and a lot less of that Michael Stipe droning that bothers me so. 7.5 out of 9.9.
