R.E.M.'s 13th Studio Album on 180g Double LP!

This item not eligible for any further discount offers!

Around the Sun is R.E.M.'s 13th studio album, released in 2004. The album hit #1 on the UK albums chart and #13 on the Billboard 200. Includes the singles "Leaving New York," "Aftermath," "Electron Blue," and "Wanderlust." Also features "The Outsiders" with guest vocals from Q-Tip. This 2-LP set is pressed on 180-gram vinyl and comes housed in a gatefold package with printed inner sleeves.

[Around the Sun] found the band settling into musical middle age. The music had nicely mellowed, even with the wild card appearance of A Tribe Called Quest's Q-Tip on 'The Outsiders,' with hammock swing tempos and some of Michael Stipe's most searching, ruminative lyrics.
-Robert Ham, Paste Magazine
Kevin Gray did quite a fine job with these two R.E.M. releases. For one thing, I can turn up the volume while playing either of them without experiencing off-putting harshness... If you love and miss R.E.M. like I do, these new vinyl reissues of Around the Sun and Collapse Into Now are no doubt excellent options for revisiting the group's late-period music that you may have overlooked, or simply not gone back to for a while... you can't go wrong refreshing yourself with spinning either and/or both Sun and Collapse.
