R.E.M. – Reckoning – CD

‘Reckoning’ is the second album by American rock band R.E.M. It’s one of those albums that never gets tiring. While these songs are simple and catchy they still avoid coming off as boring and cheesy. This is an alt/rock album that has amazing guitar riffs, melodies, lyrics, and replay value. R.E.M. mixes this album up by putting in some alt/country songs that don’t keep things from being monotonous. The thing that makes ‘Reckoning’ stand out is its ability to get three and four songs stuck in your head at a time. This version has 5 bonus tracks and is remastered in 1992.
