Chronicling the band's massively successful tenure on Warner Bros. Records, 'In Time' surveys R.E.M.'s transition from cult college-rock heroes to stadium-filling alternative icons. The sequence eschews strict chronological order, fluidly mixing defining global anthems like 'Losing My Religion' with soundtrack contributions and two newly recorded tracks. It functions as a meticulously curated capstone to their peak commercial era and creative mastery of introspective, acoustic-driven pop.
