Our Take

R.E.M.'s "Green" is like taking a walk through a vibrant forest of musical experimentation. From the moment Michael Stipe's distinctive vocals kick in on "Pop Song 89," you know you're in for a wild ride.

The album beautifully showcases the band's ability to seamlessly blend catchy melodies with thought-provoking lyrics. "Orange Crush" is a perfect example of this, with its infectious chorus and powerful message about the horrors of war.

But it's not all serious stuff with R.E.M. The playful energy of tracks like "Stand" and "Get Up" will have you bopping along with a smile on your face. And let's not forget about the quirky charm of "The Wrong Child," a haunting ballad that showcases Stipe's enigmatic storytelling abilities.

One of the standout tracks has to be "Hairshirt," a soulful ballad that builds to an epic crescendo, showcasing the band's musical prowess and emotional depth.

Overall, "Green" is a testament to R.E.M.'s creativity and innovation. It's a must-listen for any fan of alternative rock music, and a welcome addition to any music lover's collection. So grab your headphones, press play, and prepare to be transported into R.E.M.'s magical musical world.

About the artist

R.E.M.

R.E.M. Formed in Athens, Georgia in 1980, R.E.M. took the alternative rock world by storm with their jangly guitars, enigmatic lyrics, and Michael Stipe's unmistakable vocals. Combining elements of folk, punk, and post-punk, R.E.M. created a sound that was both timeless and ahead of its time. Their 1983 debut album, "Murmur," is widely regarded as a classic of the genre, with songs like "Radio Free Europe" and "Talk About the Passion" showcasing their melodic hooks and introspective lyrics. Over the years, R.E.M. continued to push boundaries and experiment with their sound, incorporating elements of country, folk, and electronic music into their repertoire. Despite their mainstream success, the band always maintained a sense of mystery and aloofness, with Stipe's cryptic lyrics and enigmatic stage presence adding to their mystique. With hits like "Losing My Religion," "Everybody Hurts," and "Man on the Moon," R.E.M. solidified their status as one of the most influential and innovative bands of their era. After more than three decades together, R.E.M. announced their breakup in 2011, leaving behind a legacy of timeless music and a devoted fanbase. Whether you're a die-hard fan or a casual listener, R.E.M.'s music is sure to leave a lasting impression. So grab your fedora, put on your best flannel shirt, and let yourself be transported to the world of R.E.M. You won't regret it.
