I am a Longtime Fan of REM and I am so happy to see they have survived all the changes in the record industry. And still putting out videos and still looking so cool.

What a really great new album. Amazing!!!!
I’m just a littlebit disappointed of the “Supernatural” Music Video, it’s pretty boring, I miss a great idea, representing the band’s creativity. Can’t wait for the concert.
