Album Description

R.E.M.'s seminal eleventh studio album, Up, is being reissued to commemorate its 25th anniversary. Originally released in 1998, this album marked a significant milestone in the band's history, as it was their first studio album without drummer Bill Berry. The album features an array of captivating singles, including 'Daysleeper', 'Lotus', 'Suspicion', and 'At My Most Beautiful', which drew inspiration from electronic music to create a dreamy pop landscape that is both reflective and moody.

This 25th Anniversary Edition is a testament to the band's innovative spirit, with a remastered version of the original album. The deluxe 2-CD + 1-Blu-Ray set, 2-LP, 2-CD, and digital formats offer a comprehensive listening experience, including a never-before-released 11-track live performance from R.E.M.'s 1999 taping for the TV series Party of Five. This live performance showcases the band's energetic stage presence, with renditions of iconic tracks such as 'What's The Frequency, Kenneth?', 'Losing My Religion', and 'Man On The Moon'.

With its unique blend of jangle pop, alternative rock, and rock genres, Up is an album that has stood the test of time. R.E.M.'s experimentation with electronic music tools has resulted in a distinctive sound that is both nostalgic and forward-thinking. The 25th Anniversary Edition of Up is a must-have for fans of the band and music enthusiasts alike, offering a fresh perspective on a beloved album.

About R.E.M.

R.E.M. emerged from the vibrant music scene of Athens, Georgia, in 1980, with a sound that would redefine alternative rock. Founded by Bill Berry, Peter Buck, Mike Mills, and Michael Stipe, the band's unique blend of jangly guitars, cryptic lyrics, and Stipe's distinctive vocals quickly set them apart. Their influence was immense, inspiring countless bands like Nirvana and Pixies. With hits like "Losing My Religion" and "Everybody Hurts," R.E.M. sold over 90 million albums worldwide, becoming one of the best-selling music acts in history. Even after Berry's departure in 1997 and the band's amicable split in 2011, R.E.M.'s legacy endures, with occasional reunions and inductions into prestigious halls of fame keeping their spirit alive. Their music, characterized by Buck's ringing guitar arpeggios and Mills' melodic bass lines, continues to captivate fans old and new.
