R.E.M. vs. U2 with Surely You Can't Be Serious: Part 1 - R.E.M. Out of Time

In Part 1 of this special two-part collaboration with the *Surely You Can't Be Serious* Podcast, we revisit one of the defining albums of 1991: *Out of Time* by R.E.M..Together, we go track by track through the album that launched R.E.M. from alternative rock favorites to worldwide stars. From the massive success of "Losing My Religion" to all the standout tracks on side B, we break down what made this album such a defining release of the early ’90s. We also have our usual draft. This time it's the best albums of 1991—a year packed with legendary releases across rock, alternative, grunge, and pop. And this is only Part 1!
