Mitski's latest album, The Land Is Inhospitable And So Are We is our Weekly Album Club discussion!!!

BUT - instead of doing 2 threads, let's just make this THE thread. Your job this week is to listen to her new album and share your thought here in this thread!

You have 1 week! Put yer good headphones on!

This is our first Weekly Album Club discussion thread! Last Wednesday I passed out our assignment. REM's 1992 follow up to their mainstream breakthrough Out of Time, Automatic For The People

https://lemmy.world/post/4994392

One of the 1000s of band inspired by Velvet Underground that became a band that kicked off a 1000 alternative bands of their own (and is our community header). After taking college rock and literally kick starting the “authenticity” alternative music boom of the 90s, REM returned with this brooding dark album.

So you all had a week, what are your thoughts on AFTP, what it meant for REM, to music, to you? How does it feel in its place in time? And whatever else you want to talk about with it.

Let's go!
