Our Review

After Murmur turned the Athens, Ga., quartet into mini-stars, R.E.M. didn’t waste time, with Reckoning slipping into stores a short year after that mysterioso debut album. Certainly a less mind-altering experience than its predecessor, Reckoning was hardly a retreat; its often more straightforward charms served to bring another view of the band’s gifts to light. Strong hints of acoustic-based glories to come were present in moments as varied as the countryish college-radio hits “So. Central Rain” and “(Don’t Go Back to) Rockville” and the raga-rock experiment “Time After Time,” while full-on stompers like “Pretty Persuasion” and “Little America” showcased drummer Bill Berry as a cogent musical engine. Through all this, a modesty prevailed, as if a clear decision had been made to simply do the work and go. But the steps R.E.M. was taking were long, hurtling ones.

The Trunk (5 stars)
I saw REM on this tour in '84 and remember Mike Mills and Peter Buck walking around the outside of the Orpheum theater in Boston and signing autographs and talking with the people who got there early (all 10 of us!)--I was really impressed with that. They even wrote back when I sent them a fan letter. Murmur was the roots, Reckoning is the trunk and the rest of the albums are the branches, leaves and flowers. This is the only "pure&q

Incredible (5 stars)
If you're about 35 now, chances are this was your soundtrack to high school, like it was for me. (Along with The Smiths). It's such a classic album. Every song triggers a memory and it's a great, great road trip album.

Biography

Formed: 1980 in Athens, GA
Genre: Rock
Years Active: '80s, '90s, '00s, '10s

R.E.M. marked the point when post-punk turned into alternative rock. When their first single, "Radio Free Europe," was released in 1981, it sparked a back-to-the-garage movement in the American underground. While there were a number of hardcore and punk bands in the U.S. during the early '80s, R.E.M. brought guitar pop back into the underground lexicon. Combining ringing guitar hooks with mumbled, cryptic lyrics and a D.I.Y. aesthetic borrowed from post-punk, the band simultaneously sounded traditional...
