Right, so it's a new R.E.M album, and just when I was just about to listen to some more old R.E.M albums. Disappointingly this album never quite grabbed me, 'Discoverer' was a pretty good start to the album but after that 'All The Best' is pretty anonymous and 'UBerlin' just annoys me due to its uncanny resemblance to 'Drive,' the opening track of Automatic for the People.
Still, there are good tracks on this album, like 'Oh My Heart' and 'Mine Smell Like Honey,' but the overall impression I get from this album is that of a sequel to Automatic for the People, but unfortunately, the sequel is rarely better than the original.
