Run, do not walk, to buy "Boxer" by The National. "Boxer" has become an instant classic in my mind. Give it 3 or 4 listens before making a jusdgement. This is coming from a huge REM fan. Back in high school (late 80's) I was told by a friend that I needed to expand my musical collection. I responded that I didn't understand - I listen to all kinds or REM.

I caught REM at Red Rocks (with Wilco) a few years back. Except for the cold, it was a great show.
