简介

by Stephen Thomas Erlewine R.E.M. began to move toward mainstream record production on Lifes Rich Pageant, but they didn't have a commercial breakthrough until the following year's . Ironically, is a stranger, more varied album than its predecessor, but co-producer Scott Litt -- who would go on to produce every R.E.M. album in the following decade -- is a better conduit for the band than Don Gehman, giving the group a clean sound without sacrificing their enigmatic tendencies. &Finest Worksong,& the stream-of-conscious rant &It's the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine),& and the surprise Top Ten single &The One I Love& all crackle with muscular rhythms and guitar riffs, but the real surprise is how political the mid-tempo jangle pop of &Welcome to the Occupation,& &Disturbance at the Heron House,& and &King of Birds& is. Where Lifes Rich Pageant sounded a bit like a party record, is a fiery statement, and its memorable melodies and riffs are made all the more indelible by its righteous anger. In other words, it's not only a commercial breakthrough, but a creative breakthrough as well, offering evidence of R.E.M.'s growing depth and maturity, and helping usher in the P.C. era in the process.
