I thoroughly dislike this album. I also don't like R.E.M. I find Man on the Moon and Nightswimming okay, but the rest is just boring.

Wow, this person must be deaf.

Anyway, this album is a masterpiece.

Here's my history with Automatic For The People...

1st listen: This album is highly overrated.
2nd listen: Actually, this album is pretty good.
3rd listen: I effing love this album!

It really grew on me, and is now one of my favourite albums of the 90s, and of all time. I even love the less popular songs on the album, such as "Sweetness Follows", "Monty Got A Raw Deal" and "Ignoreland".

Sweetness Follows is such an amazing track.

Fantastic album. Top 3 R.E.M. album for sure. Goes back and forth between this album and Green for me as their best.
