Our Take

R.E.M. have always been the enigmatic cool kids of the alt-rock scene, and their 1994 album Monster is no exception. Now celebrating its 25th anniversary with a remastered edition, this album still packs a punch - like the feeling you get when you accidentally sit on a cactus.

From the gritty guitar riffs of "What's the Frequency, Kenneth?" to the hauntingly beautiful balladry of "Strange Currencies," Monster is a rollercoaster of emotions that will leave you wondering if you're having an existential crisis or just need to go to the dentist. And don't even get me started on "Bang and Blame" - it’s like a breakup song mixed with a primal scream therapy session.

The bonus tracks on this anniversary edition add an extra layer of weirdness to an already offbeat album. "Pete's Hit" is a bizarre mix of distorted vocals and jangly guitars that will have you feeling like you're at a psychedelic carnival in the middle of a hurricane.

Despite its quirks, Monster is a must-listen for any R.E.M. fan or anyone looking to inject a bit of chaos into their music collection. So grab your flannel shirt, dust off your Doc Martens, and prepare for a wild ride with this 90s gem that still shines bright today.
