Catching up on the project of @nottopgearrh.swifties.social and his music blog.
This https://www.recordreconstructor.com/2025/01/002-is-it-better-to-burn-out-than-to.html entry discusses R.E.M. as a band.
This was the first band I ever followed, leading me to The B52s and Pylon. And also to the Atlanta Falcons and Dragon*Con.

And yet, I haven't appreciably listened to them for years.
I stopped listening to albums decades ago when I began curating my own playlists (https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4h1J2M9LEM0ew5bnoF7PiA?si=0noc4dE5ShCqgvDkySxUDw&pi=VWH-u6A5T2CCM).
Note anything about this playlist?
I've listened to them several times and I couldn't tell you anything about them.
They're audio objet d'art: the sort of thing that sits on a mantle piece and simply exists.
Is this the final destination of all creatives?
