One of rock's most popular and respected bands, R.E.M. opens another chapter in it's acclaimed history with Reveal, it's first album in nearly three years. Riding the cutting edge and yet still R.E.M. rock, moody yet more uplifting than 1998's gold-certified Up, Reveal is the latest musical revelation from R.E.M. Certified Gold by the RIAA. (6/01)

    5.0 out of 5 stars The great under-rated REM album
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 July 2020

    Well of course it's a matter of individual taste but I think Reveal is packed with memorable songs, not ground breaking but just great songs. I'll Take The Rain is particularly gorgeous and Imitation Of Life is their best pop song, beating Shiny Happy People.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Charades, pop skill...
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 February 2017
    You really have to feel sorry for REM, they set the bar so ridiculously high with their first 10 (TEN!!!) full-lengthers that any minor decline in quality thereafter was liable to be pounced upon and held up as evidence of their "inevitable" demise, or something similar... and that's exactly what happened. Typically however, like most of their post-Berry albums, Reveal is a thoroughly excellent collection of songs approached from a number of less immediate directions which casual listeners may not initially warm to.

    Continuing down the eclectic (comparatively) experimental path they chose on Up, Reveal (re)introduces some of the infectious pop sensibility of acknowledged "classic" albums like Out Of Time and Automatic For The People, the difference being that Reveal largely eschews traditional instrumentation for a shimmering keyboard-led arrangements but, though they'd flounder somewhat on the subsequent Around The Sun, REM remain completely in control hereon.

    The CD is marked, so more Good rather than VGood.

    I’m a CD collector and VGood means undamaged CD surface. The one I received, sadly, is not :/

    5.0 out of 5 stars "All I Really Want Is Just to Live My Life on High..."
    Reviewed in the United States on 1 February 2014
    Verified Purchase
    I always felt bad for R.E.M. after drummer Bill Berry left the group in 1997. Not because I didn't think the band was capable of going on without him but rather that few ever really gave their music a chance after that. With each release it seemed that fans and critics were quick to comment that the band was past its glory days and was drifting aimlessly through tired experiments and mediocre songwriting. While there's no arguing that Berry was an essential part of the band I also believe R.E.M. made some of their best and more creative music in his absence. With Reveal it seemed the remaining three members had made peace with his departure and had found a method that worked for them, resulting in what I think is arguably their best and most exuberant effort.

    What makes this record so engrossing is the atmosphere it creates. The production, while layered and heavy with electronic touches and multiple instruments, is effervescent and warm. Each track is wrapped in a blanket of rich vocals and sonic progression that gives it a distinct summertime feel. In this sense Reveal is exactly what it looks to be: a bright pop album that is best enjoyed cruising around town on a sunny day. It has the effect of lifting you out of where you are and putting you somewhere else, which is no easy feat, yet I think that often the best music is able to do that. It's escapism but it has a purpose and it invites you to experience the journey for yourself.

    The opening songs are a great example, from the jubilant highs of "The Lifting" (which is actually a sequel to Up's "Daysleeper"), the tender and gorgeous "I've Been High", and the poppy "All the Way to Reno (You're Gonna Be a Star)". The hit "Imitation of Life" manages to combine the band's trademark sound with a more modern touch. These songs seem simple, and perhaps at their core they are, but underneath they're brimming with creativity and a zest to experience all that life has to offer. The softer ballads manage to also impress. "Saturn Return" is driven by gentle piano and "Summer Turns to High" beams with electronic loops. "I'll Take the Rain" is beautiful and "Beat a Drum" is not only my favorite on the album but one of my favorite R.E.M. ever. It's a Beach Boys-esque number that gives Michael Stipe's voice room to shine and finds the band at their melodic best. Add to that the haunting "Chorus and the Ring", the gentle "She Just Wants to Be", and the more layered touches on "Disappear" and "Beachball" and you have a record that's nearly flawless from beginning to end. Every track works and it flows perfectly from start to finish. I can't find a fault with anything here.

    In terms of underrated records this may be the band's most overlooked and forgotten album, which is a shame when you look at just how much it has to offer. It's beautiful, fun, and relaxing, making it the quintessential summer record. Those expecting the intensity of Lifes Rich Pageant or Document may be let down but R.E.M. was never a band intent on repeating themselves. This is a mature and sophisticated record that finds the trio firing on all cylinders. It's my second-favorite of theirs, with only Fables of the Reconstruction managing to top it. This is a special record to me and one that has only grown in esteem over time. I never tire of listening to it.

    Turn it up, feel the sunlight on your face, and let it wash over you. That's the way it's meant to be experienced.
