Subtle, Surprising, Endlessly Influential — R.E.M. Redefine Alternative Pop
Out of Time marked a turning point for R.E.M., expanding their sound while keeping their identity intact. Blending acoustic textures, string arrangements and melodic restraint, the album feels quietly confident and deeply assured. This 2016 180g vinyl pressing brings added weight, warmth and stability to the recordings.
The analogue format enhances vocal intimacy and instrumental balance.
A refined, essential release from one of alternative music’s most important bands.
