- It's 22 May 2022, It's Notcast 202, It's dark, and we're wearing an R.E.M. T-Shirt. "HIT IT!" Today I talk about R.E.M. 2002-2004, the "In Time" compilation, singles "Bad Day", "Animal", "Leaving New York", "Aftermath", "Wanderlust", "Electron Blue", the "Around The Sun" album, 5.1 DVD's, Box Sets, fan club singles, a weird 3" promo CD, ostentatious packaging, the "Perfect Square" concert DVD, and I interrupt this programme to sneeze in the middle! 22 May 2022.
A couple of notes here... Bad Day is a top tune for R.E.M., a definite favorite. I also really liked All The Wrong Friends. I agree with you on Bill Rieflin, he's a great drummer. I've been a fan of his since his days with Ministry. I definitely started losing interest in R.E.M. after the Up album, and that was the last time I saw them live. They never did disappoint live. But I agree that Around The Sun is not a great album.
For me, Around The Sun was the first time I'd heard an REM album fail. During their best years every release was a big, exciting event and you'd get an album of always-great music that you'd have on high rotation for a year or more. By the time I finished my first listen of Around The Sun I knew it was very sub-par.
