This is what happens when you record with Peter Buck,now way to hide those gorgeous rhythm patterns.

Obviously Colin Meloy of The Decemberists is a huge REM fan. If you think this one is similar listen to "Calamity Song" from the Decemberists, then "Talk About the Passion" from REM.

Check out R.E.M's World Leader Pretend... off of GREEN. I think that one is way closer to Down by the Water. As far as the rip-off- I agree that there is no penalty, it's more in the way of tribute and the frontman will gladly admit to his writing of "fake REM songs". Bringing Peter Buck in, is a sure-fire method of tribute to an unabashedly public acknowledgment of influence.

interesting but not a rip off

Well, if Peter Buck is actually playing in the track I guess he has no problem whatsoever. Anyway, Buck is here actually playing (at least) one of the arpeggios on "The One I Love" so that's kinda on him for not finding a variation/combination of other notes. He sampled himself. Also, there are only 12 major chords and 12 standard minor triad chords and eventually you will stumble on a chord progression used somewhere else.

@nuggz503 I think there could be a pretty epic combination song like Boulevard of Broken Songs style

I heard this on the radio, and I thought it was the new REM album dropping early.

I just bought "The King Is Dead" yesterday and thought the same thing the first time I heard "Down By The Water"! Cool comparison! Thanks for posting!
