R.E.M. calls it a day :(

this(most mental **** I've ever heard.

I think these guys may just be more mental.  >.>

Should have known a thread on music would turn into a metal vs. 'anything' discussion

But comparing music of different genres doesn't make sense to me.
When it comes to basic song writing skills and the production of the sound they were excellent.

I actually like a lot of R.E.M. songs. But since I have tons of other things to worry about, I don't really care.

They sure got a lot of press over disbanding though, it was like everybody in the news business thought they were the Rolling Stones or Elvis. I thought, oh R.E.M is no longer going to be a music group I didn't even know that R.E.M. was still around but thanks for the update you news hounds, how about that war in Afghanistan is that still on?

Err. They are one of the most successful and well-loved bands of all time. So you COULD say that 

To compare R.E.M with Elvis and the Rolling Stones, is a joke. REM are no where near the level of those bands

 

[Evilknightz]

In your opinion.
As a matter of fact, I only like the Rolling Stones in the 60s and I have never liked anything by Elvis.
Ever.

It's not metal that sucks. It's the fans.

Fans tend to blow, not suck...

Though I suppose it depends entirely on the type of fan.
