    Always remember the 1994-95 Monster tour (the Monster "Curse" as it was called). Mike Mills had surgery for an intestinal tumor, Michael Stipe had surgery for a hernia, and most serious was Bill Berry, who underwent emergency brain surgery for a brain aneurysm. But during all that (and the world tour), a masterpiece was created; New Adventures in Hi-Fi.

    It was completely ignored by Radio for some reason and didn’t really have any hits. It fell through the cracks. I don’t care because the first time I heard it I knew it was one of their best.
    It has a low key kind of understated sadness and melancholy vibe to it. Absolutely brilliant! This is what Artists create.
