R.E.M. - “The Sidewinder Sleeps Tonite”

R.E.M. announced today they are ending their thirty year career.

Automatic for the People was one of the first albums I ever listened to. Though as a kid I preferred the pop on Green and the over-driven Monster, Automatic is the one I always come back to. “With string parts arranged by Led Zeppelin’s John Paul Jones,” notes Rolling Stone, “this musical left turn finds a haunted beauty.” Indeed.

Edit: Corrected file. I knew you people weren’t ignoring me.
