Definetly check out Murmur and Automatic For The People by R.E.M.

Depeche Mode - Violator = one of the sickest albums

not into Duran Duran, but check out Depeche Mode's "Songs of Faith and Devotion" and DEFINITELY get REM's "Automatic for the People", one of the best albums of the 90's. If you like it, get "New Adventures in Hi-Fi", "Monster" and "Out of Time" next. You might wanna give "Reveal" a try, but avoid "Around the Sun" although a Q-Tip collabo might sound promising, it's their most boring album.

All only my personal opinion though, but "Automatic for the People" at least is pretty much universally acclaimed....
