Weirdly enough, a few years go by and they release the In Time compilation, and im super fucking into REM again, loving Around The Sun, seeing them live, getting into b sides....but never never Reveal.
So far im not liking Reveal at all.
I went to chuck this on yesterday, but on opening the CD case - turns out the album is missing.....
Chucked on Murmur while exercising this morning, and Reveal was jammed into the case as well, so got this playing at the moment. Liking it a lot more than I remember - despite it being such a sugary album

Is nakedness ever not a reveal?

Was looking at the RSD list and saw this mentioned about exclusive releases
'R.E.M. (an archival live album under the alias Bingo Hand Job)'
I used to have a bootleg of this gig on CD, and it's fantastic!

My girlfriend surprised me with the recent "R.E.M. At The BBC" vinyl for no reason. She's a good egg

I'm still waiting for that track to click with me. I don't dislike it by any means but I don't feel what most REM fans feel.
