Leaving behind the garagey jangle pop of their first recordings, R.E.M. developed a strangely subdued variation of their trademark sound for their full-length debut album, Murmur. Heightening the enigmatic tendencies of Chronic Town by de-emphasizing the backbeat & accentuating the ambience of the ringing guitar, R.E.M. created a distinctive sound for the album -- one that sounds eerily timeless. Even though it is firmly in the tradition of American folk-rock, post-punk, & garage rock, Murmu ...

MURMUR, far from an embryonic debut, shows a fully-formed unit with a strong artistic vision. (It was preceded by two legendary underground releases: The " Radio Free Europe" single--which was re-recorded for MURMUR--and the CHRONIC TOWN EP.) Producers Mitch Easter & Don Dixons lofty reputations would have remained intact even if they had never worked on another record after this one. The gentle-but-insistent arrangements & glorious pop hooks of songs like " Catapult" & " Talk About The Pass ...

New Adventures is a snapshots-from-the-road record in the tradition of Neil Youngs Time Fades Away & Jackson Brownes Running on Empty.

Its the work of a band pretty near its ...

Before Nirvanas NEVERMIND closed out the year with the unexpected commercial triumph of grunge rock, R.E.M.s OUT OF TIME was the sound of alternative music circa 1991. The smash singles " Losing My Religion"--perhaps the only Top Five US single ever to feature the mandolin as its lead instrument--and " Shiny Happy People" were the commercial face of the album. Elsewhere, however, R.E.M. makes a point of moving away from expectations, resulting in intriguing experiments like the surprisingly funk ...
