Our Take

R.E.M. have always been a band that defies expectations, and their album Up is certainly no exception. With the 25th Anniversary Edition release, fans are treated to a remastered version of the original tracks, as well as some special bonus material that truly showcases the band's eclectic sound.

From the haunting melodies of "At My Most Beautiful" to the raw energy of "Lotus," R.E.M. showcases their range and versatility on this album. The band's signature jangly guitar riffs and introspective lyrics are present throughout, but there's a certain maturity and growth that comes through in the music.

The bonus material on this edition is a real treat for fans, with unreleased tracks and live recordings that offer a glimpse into the band's creative process. It's a reminder of the sheer talent and innovation that R.E.M. brought to the music industry during their heyday.

Overall, Up (25th Anniversary Edition) is a must-have for any R.E.M. fan, and a great introduction for those who may not be as familiar with the band's work. It's a testament to the enduring appeal of their music, and a reminder of just how ahead of their time R.E.M. truly were. Grab a copy, sit back, and let the music transport you to a place where anything is possible.

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.
