REM - Up - Rock Music CD Review

One word depicts the cadmium Up from R.E.M.... AWESOME!

Refreshingly, this was one of those CDs I was able to just protrude in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. Every path is gratifying and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.

Up have a pleasantly varied, premix of 14 paths that are very well written and brilliantly performed songs by these clearly talented musicians. Most of the songs show a batch of the sort emotion that brands for a really great listen. Seemingly drawing from what I can only conceive of are their ain existent life experiences. At different points touching on the most existent emotions of love, heartbreak, pain, failed human relationships and unachievable romance. They're all here.

I'm of the sentiment that Up is certainly some of this groupings best work in a few years. A totally gratifying cadmium and an outstanding release. What I name must have got music. I give it two pollexes up because it's a aggregation that even the insouciant Rock fan can appreciate and enjoy.

While the full cadmium is really very good some of my favourites are path 5 - At My Most Beautiful, path 8 - You're In The Air, and path 14 - Waterfall To Climb

My Bonus Pick, and the 1 that got Sensitive [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is path 1 - Airportman. It's a great track!
