Nah I'm just saying they're not that good and someone emulating them with a banjo player isn't good either.

I know REM are far from experimental, but hey Stipe and Buck were the best pop songwriters since Lennon/McCartney.

It doesn't really have to be experimental for me to like it, even though that's often the case. Something about their brand of pop just doesn't really attract me anymore (I did listen to Fables of Reconstruction with my dad as a kid, maybe I just got burnt out on them). If I were to give that title to someone it would be Jack and Meg White.

YES.

PS. REM with a banjo is a vast understatement referring to how totally unoriginal Mumford & Sons are!
