About album of the day: The BestEverAlbums.com album of the day is the album appearing most prominently in member charts in the previous 24 hours. If an album, or artist, has previously been selected within a x day period, the next highest album is picked instead (and so on) to ensure a bit of variety. A full history of album of the day can be viewed here.
A genuine masterpiece that manages to make wonderful music from the usually awful style of power pop. Many forgotten R.E.M. classics like “Exhuming McCarthy”, “Lightning Hopkins”, “Welcome to the Occupation” in addition to the well-known “The One I Love” and “It’s the End of the World as We Know It”.
The only albums that remotely come close as 1980s rock works are Ghost in the Machine and the lesser-known Wasn’t Tomorrow Wonderful (which had the recently deceased Mars Williams and Billy Ficca of Television).
