The top half is drummer Bill Berry and the bottom half is a couple of bison. Not totally sure about the significance but I think that this is around the time that their environmental concerns were coming to the fore so maybe something around that theme.
Interesting question though and one that I hadn't really pondered before

It's an environment thing but it's also a pun - Buffalo Bill. _________________ And it's hard to be a human being. And it's harder as anything else.
The highs are ridiculously high (‘Cuyahoga’, ‘Swan Swan Hummingbird’, ‘Fall On Me’, ‘I Believe’, ‘The Flowers of Guatemala’ - all are probably in my top twenty R.E.M. songs), but there are a lot of indistinguishable autopilot jaunty pop-rock numbers here. _________________ 2021 in full effect.

I find that is my slight issue with a lot of early REM. Murmer is the exception that proves the rule.
You’re probably right. I don’t love anything on Murmur (or any other REM album, for that matter) as much as I love ‘Cuyahoga’, though. That right there is a perfect song, as resonant today as it ever was, with a bassline that lives rent-free in my mind. And Stipe’s delivery, wow. So haunting, but with this massive soaring hook. Genuinely one of the greatest pop songs of all-time. _________________ 2021 in full effect. Come drop me some recs. Y'all know what I like.
