CONSEQUENCE OF SOUND
Dusting ‘Em Off: R.E.M. – Reckoning I pinpoint the recording process the band undertook for Reckoning as the path that Peter Buck wanted to rediscover during the Accelerate and Collapse into Now sessions. Knock ‘em in, knock ‘em out. […]

Pitchfork
Whether crafting a subdued folk song or an over-the-top glam rock stomper, R.E.M. have always embraced their chosen approach completely, even if it means former drummer Bill Berry laying low for an acoustic number or singer Michael Stipe handing off a lead vocal to bassist Mike Mills. […]

marsbars
I have no clue what a “harborcoat” is, and not only is Michael Stipe mumbling like he were chewing gum throughout the whole thing, but there are backing vocals to deal with to, making it impossible to deduce what he’s saying. […]
