Well I go farther to the 80s, and I can tell you here in America, anyways, it started to go tits up around 1986. For awhile College Radio and the live circuit was a place to see cutting-edge music. But then by '86 REM became super-popular at a time when they were becoming a bit annoying (circa Life's Rich Pageant.) So much so every band sounded like REM.


Agreed! Your REM was our The Smiths
