Free Music Review: Something Old, Something New from R.E.M.
Hit: 5 Stars
From the time I first started listening to R.E.M. in the mid-1980's, I have always loved their ballads (remember "Shaking Through" and "Wendell Gee"?) "New Adventures in Hi-Fi" delivers several great ballads, including "Be Mine", "New Test Leper" and the haunting "E-Bow the Letter" (a duet with Patti Smith). These songs have sunk their hooks deep within my subconscious; I play them at least twice each time I listen to the CD and sometimes they play in my head even when I'm not listening to the CD! But the CD does offer some "New Adventures" from the band. "The Wake-Up Bomb" and "Departure" have a much harder edge than most R.E.M. songs. And you can actually make out the lyrics to most of the songs.
The mood shifts constantly throughout the CD, both musically and lyrically. Michael Stipe's lyrics are as quirky as ever ("I wanna be your Easter bunny, I wanna be your Christmas tree") as they alternately celebrate and condemn the contemporary world we live in.
