Released 1992Alternative & Indie
Start here
A hushed, autumnal masterpiece of strings and reflection, home to 'Everybody Hurts' and 'Nightswimming'. Their most emotionally resonant record. Beautiful and enduring. Released in 1992, it's a key entry in R.E.M.'s run.
On vinyl: Vinyl can be scarcer than the CD from this era, so it's worth looking for a recent repressing.
