In 1988, REM were a cult on the cusp of major success. In 1992 they were somewhere close
to being the biggest band in the world. In 2003, they're marginalised again, a middle-aged
institution purportedly on the wane. Still, uninformed listeners to In Time might find it
tricky to work out which songs come from which era. The 18 singles collected here in non-
chronological order show a band that's operated at a terrifyingly high standard throughout
the period, so that less lauded songs like "The Great Beyond" stand proud alongside the
familiar anthems from the early 1990s. Of course, these compilations are sent to irritate
loyalists, whose relief at the inclusion of "E-Bow the Letter" (a mesmerising duet with
Patti Smith from 1996) will be undermined by the bewildering absence of 1992's tearjerking
epiphany "Find the River". For a more comprehensive survey of REM's excellence, you'll
also need The Best of REM, the highlights of their elliptical early years. One suspects a
box set which tells the full story of this enduring band can't be that far away. For now,
though, In Time will do well enough.
