Product Description

Dive into the raw and gritty world of R.E.M. with their eighth studio album, "Monster," released on September 27, 1994, under Craft Recordings. This album marks a bold departure from their previous folk-rock sound, embracing a heavier, more aggressive alternative rock and jangle pop style. With a runtime of 49 minutes, "Monster" is a sonic journey through 13 tracks, each remastered to perfection, showcasing R.E.M.'s evolution and versatility.

From the hauntingly catchy "What's The Frequency, Kenneth?" to the raw energy of "Crush With Eyeliner" and the introspective "I Don't Sleep, I Dream," the album is a testament to R.E.M.'s ability to blend powerful lyrics with infectious melodies. The title track, "King Of Comedy," is a standout, blending dark humor with a driving rhythm. Other highlights include the haunting "Star 69," the raw "Bang And Blame," and the introspective "You."

"Monster" is a must-listen for any fan of alternative rock, offering a unique blend of raw energy, powerful lyrics, and unforgettable melodies. Whether you're a long-time R.E.M. fan or new to their music, this album is sure to leave a lasting impression.

This 2019 Reissue Remastered LP is pressed on 180g vinyl.

  • Michael's Crystal Clear Pressing

    5 out of 5 stars
    caqo_oyp_calrobafj10 December 2025United States🇺🇸

    Found this edition at my neighborhood record shop. The pressing is absolutely amazing. Michael's singing is crystal clear, and the guitar sound is just incredible.

  • Barcode Missing, Album Amazing

    5 out of 5 stars
    NbeVievUcvae7 December 2025United States🇺🇸

    The back cover of Club Edition lacks a barcode. What an amazing album!

  • Remaster Hits, Remix Misses

    5 out of 5 stars
    ZeqnozpBxetv10 October 2025United States🇺🇸

    The remaster is fantastic, and while the remix isn't terrible, it might not hit the spot for those who've been listening to these tracks since day one. They've certainly boosted Stipe's vocals in the mix. My copies are nice and quiet, though the remix album's paper sleeve has a few scuffs. I'm really enjoying it overall, but if you're a purist, you might want to grab just the single album remaster instead ;)

  • Remastering Falls Short

    2 out of 5 stars
    Tuzra4 October 2025United States🇺🇸

    This re-mastering is not up to par. The sound stage is lacking, with everything centered and sounding squeezed.

  • Remastered Disaster

    2 out of 5 stars
    Jeyvg4616 September 2025United States🇺🇸

    Walled off with bricks, this remaster is a complete and utter disaster! The only upside compared to the original is the packaging, which is actually decent. But the music? It's like someone drained all the life out of it. It's dull and lifeless. Stay far, far away from this stinker, it's a total goat blower!!!
