Thread to hate on REM

God, what a shitty band. It's not so much that they're "boring" as that so much of their output is just a tuneless morass of "jangly guitars" and a plodding rhythm section with one of the most annoying singers this side of Bono (I'm talking about lyrics, or lack thereof, and the delivery that says absolutely nothing).
That said, "Fall On Me" is a corker, one of my favorite singles by anyone. Shame everything else they did was so bloody horrible.
