By the early 1990s, when alternative rock began to experience broad mainstream success, R.E.M. was viewed as a pioneer of the genre and released its two most commercially successful albums, Out of Time (1991) and Automatic for the People (1992), which veered from the band's established sound. R.E.M.'s 1994 release Monster was a return to a more rock-oriented sound. The band began its first tour in six years to support the album; the tour was marred by medical emergencies suffered by three band members. In 1996, R.E.M. re-signed with Warner Bros. for a reported US$80 million, at the time the most expensive recording contract in history. The following year, Bill Berry left the band amicably, while Buck, Mills, and Stipe continued the group as a three-piece. Through some changes in musical style, the band continued its career into the next decade with mixed critical and commercial success. In 2007, the band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
SciFiBoy's favourite R.E.M songs are: "The One I Love", "Welcome to the Occupation", "It's The End of the World as we Know It, And I Feel Fine", "Pop Song 89", "Man on the Moon", "Great Beyond", "Bad Day", "Losing My Religion", "All The Way to Reno", "Orange Crush", "Imitation of Life", "Stand", "Everybody Hurts", "Nightswimming", "Wanderlust" and "Supernatural Superserious"
Feeder are a Welsh rock band, formed in Newport during 1992 by singer-songwriter-guitaristGrant Nicholas and drummerJon Lee. BassistTaka Hirose later joined after Grant responded to an advert. Jon Lee took his own life in January 2002 at his Miami home. Former Skunk Anansie drummer Mark Richardson was asked by Grant Nicholas to step in and record Comfort in Sound, he joined Feeder on a permanent basis and recorded two further albums. In April 2009 Mark Richardson parted company with Feeder and reunited with Skunk Anansie. Feeder have also been accompanied by touring members Matt Sime (keyboards; 2000–2002), Dean Tidey (guitar, backing vocals; 1998–present), Karl Brazil (Drums; 2009-present) and Dean Deavall (keyboards, backing vocals; 2008-present).
Feeder first saw mainstream success from their third album Echo Park (2001), and its first single "Buck Rogers", which became their highest charting single at the time. Feeder have won two Kerrang! Awards in 2001 and 2003 for "Best British Live Act" and "Best British Band", as well as charting 24 singles and eight albums, with six of those making the top 10 between 1999 and 2008.[1] 2008's Silent Cry was a relative commercial setback for the band, but are still active and are currently recording their seventh studio album. Feeder have also sold over one million albums in the United Kingdom since 1997, with Comfort in Sound being their best-seller and first platinum album.
