  • "Monster" is REM's ninth studio album and was released in 1994, following "Out of Time" (1991) and "Automatic For The People" (1992), when the band reached the peak of their success. The album represented a return to REM s guitar-rich rock sound, reaching # 1 on the US Billboard charts as well as in 7 other countries, and achieving platinum status in Germany. After a long concert hiatus (the band did not tour with the previous two records), the band played their first tour since 1989 as part of the album promotion. Monster contains the singles: "What's The Frequency, Kenneth?", "Crush with Eyeliner", "Bang and Blame" and "Strange Currencies."

    For the 25th anniversary of "Monster", the album was remastered by sound engineer Greg Calbi and a remix of the album was created by producer Scott Litt, both of which will be released on double LP (180g) and double CD. In addition, the remastered version of the album with the original orange cover will be released on LP (180g).

    The deluxe box set of "Monster" (25th Anniversary Edition) includes the remastered version and remix of the album on 5 CDs, previously unreleased demos from the album and a complete live performance from 1995 recorded in Chicago. The accompanying Blu-Ray presents both the album in high-resolution audio and 5.1 surround sound, as well as a variety of video content: all six music videos from "Monster" and the 90-minute "Road Movie" documenting the 1995 REM tour . The box set is packaged in a 5 ½ inch portfolio book that includes liner notes by journalist Matthew Perpetua and archival photos.

    "Even 25 years later, it's fascinating to hear REM fight their way back to life with 'Monster' after facing death on 'Automatic For The People,' so after the melancholy mandolin sounds, now a ROCK album." (RollingStone)
