Rewind: R.E.M. on Their Classic Hits, Albums, Deep Cuts, and Their Future
Description
For this week’s Rewind, Kyle Meredith takes us through four interviews recorded over the past thirteen years with R.E.M.’s Mike Mills and Michael Stipe. The journey began in 2011, just after the band had broken up and in the midst of releasing a career retrospective, Part Lies, Part Heart, Part Truth, Part Garbage 1982-2011, with Mike Mills talking about the band’s decision to split, as well as several of their albums leading up to Collapse Into Now. From there, we head to 2018 to talk with Mills about the 20th anniversary of the 1998 album, as well as the 10th anniversary of Accelerate. After that, it’s a drop into 2021 when Michael Stipe joined Mills to reflect on the 25th anniversary of New Adventures In Hi-Fi, along with having folks like Eddie Vedder and Jason Isbell covering them. And finally, 2023 when Mills bounced back to once again talk about the ‘98 LP, Up, for it’s 25th and having the group’s music in the television show The Bear.
