This took a while to grow on me but it ranks among their finest records. Iv never been too keen on Finest Worksong but the entire second half of the album is brilliant.
Pretty good album. Much better than Murmur.
The entire second side - when there were second sides is flawless. Oddfellows Local 151 may be one of their best.
One of their best.
This album builds on the sound of Lifes Rich Pageant but ultimately does not match its quality. Still, there are great tracks such as Exhuming McCarthy and Welcome To The Occupation.
This one put them on the map. Although "The 1 I Love" was the hit, I think there many better cuts than that on the CD. Not their best, but still really good.
This is the album that really made R.E.M. famous, and with good reason. Here we find them maturing from a good band into a great band. Top notch album.
REM blossoming from a great college pop-rock band to all-time greats. Get past It's The End of The World... the rest of the album is worth it.
My second favorite R.E.M. album after Automatic for the People. Best tracks: Finest Worksong, The One I Love
Whilst often seen as one of their best, I'd have to disagree.
Sure, it features "It's the End of the World As We Know It" - without question one their best - but it also features many, otherwise, forgetful tunes such as "Fireplace" and "Exhuming McCarthey", great songs, but nothing outstanding.
What it does have though is some gripping tracks that do nothing short of rock. "Finest Worksong" is simple yet powerful and "King of Birds" is mysterious and thoughtful.
It has a good pallete and some great hits, but they are pretty much outnumbered by a few fillers.
