Notes
R.E.M. — "New Adventures In Hi-Fi" Concord Records; For their tenth studio album, R.E.M. experimented with new sonic textures—the album is filled with cinematic imagery, dissonant notes and haunting effects. The band wrote and recorded much of 1996’s New Adventures in Hi-Fi while on the road, and that vibe is reflected in themes throughout the album’s songs. New Adventures was certified platinum in the US and the UK, and includes singles “E-Bow the Letter” (featuring Patti Smith) and “Bittersweet Me.” "New Adventures In Hi-Fi" has now been released on R.E.M.'s new label Concord.

This item didn’t come in exactly as pictured, but the seller responded immediately and was very gracious in offering me a partial refund even bough I wasn’t expecting one for what I paid for the item. I have bought from this seller before, and they are reputable and stand behind the products they sell. My other transactions with them have been perfect. Great communication. Packaging and price were good. Fairly fast shipping, too. Thanks.

This item came in exactly as pictured, and the seller posted immediately and was very gracious. I didn't ask for a partial refund. Why would I? I bought what I was expecting and received what I paid for the item. Not sure if I have bought from this seller before, but they are reputable and stand behind the products they sell. My future transactions with them will no doubt be perfect. Great communication. Packaging and price were good. Fairly fast shipping, too. Thanks.

  • Back to what they do best

    REM doesn't bore their fans by putting out repetitive material, but the fact that they're all over the place ticks off a lot of their fans, including me. I like variety & different genres by the same artist, but to have an outstanding progressive rock group doing downright bubblegum, which they have done on albums from Up to Around the Sun, is just too much. Most of the songs on this CD are musically challenging and, unlike their early efforts, the lyrics are understandable. Most of them even make some kind of sense if you listen carefully, internalize them, and find your own meaning. That approach to songwriting and performing is what they do best. I listened to Around the Sun one time, and I was tired of it. This one will be played over & over - with something new ...

  • The Best from REM--Really!

    Maybe it's because I identify with so many of the haunting tunes on this brilliant CD, or maybe it's because this was such a new turn before Bill Berry left the band, but I think that this is by far REM's best. Other fans, like my husband, disagree and prefer older CDs like MURMUR and FABLES. There is something refreshingly different about this arrangement--and like U2's The Joshua Tree, the American imagery the songs paint for the listener is truly breathtaking. From mention of deserts, freeways, Mulholland Drive, dusty cities and the American West, REM hooks the listener immediately and provides great visual images as the songs go on. There's a lot of pure emotion and raw energy here--"Undertow" is a great tune about not getting exactly what one ...

  • The Wake-Up Bomb

    One of REM's more creative albums, New Adventures really is a step in another direction. I guess some fans don't like to be surprised each time a new CD comes out and wish for more of the same old stuff. I think those were the fans that really hated this album. As for me, I consider it one of the 5 best REM albums. The only song I don't care for is New Test Leper which has fantastic lyrics but really sounds like one of those bad Christian bands you would hear at camp. I think that's what they were shooting for though. 4 Stars.

  • Solid Album with Great Songs

    Probably the band's last great record..

  • Sadly dissappointing

    I loved REM; i remember seeing them in the early 80's at Cat's Cradle in Chapel Hill, and they were one of the bands that led me to a life-long love affair with music. but their output in the 90's was a dramatic decline from their work of the 80's, and this CD is a prime example. almost seems like the guys got together and said "we haven't put anything out recently; we need to get a CD out before we fall into complete irrelevance." unfortunately, this CD will not save them from that. One of the weakest projects by REM; a lot of lyrical wandering without a point. i only rate it average, because "weak" REM is better than "best of" most pop-rock pablum.
