About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

As far as major-label debuts by underground bands go, Green is fairly uncompromising. While it displays a more powerful guitar sound on "Get Up," "Turn You Inside Out," and "Orange Crush," it also takes more detours than Document, whether it's the bizarrely affecting contemporary folk of "The Wrong Child" and "You Are the Everything," the bubblegum of "Stand" and "Pop Song 89," or the introspection of the lovely "Hairshirt" and "World Leader Pretend." But instead of presenting a portrait of a band with a rich, eclectic vision, Green is incoherent. While its best moments are flat-out great, the band has bitten off more than it can chew; many of the songs sound like failed experiments, and its arena-ready production now sounds slightly dated. Nevertheless, half of the record is brilliant, and it certainly indicates that R.E.M. are continuing to diversify their sound. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

A Great album from REMby JohnQ

July 31, 2009: REM managed to create 3 master works and this is one of them (the other 2 being 'Out of Time" and 'Automatic for the People'). REM has never made a bad album and all their works have that happy mix of serious art and happy tunes. An Impressive group.

I Also Recommend: Out of Time, Automatic for the People.

May 21, 2003: This album was excellent. Very much like the sounds of the 80's, if you close your eyes it makes you think of lazy august days that last forever. If you like REM this is a great album and you should own it.
