Reveal is R.E.M.’s 12^th studio album. Released in 2001, the album was co-produced with long-time collaborator Patrick McCarthy. The band experiments with synthesized sound, but also makes “a conscious return to their classic sound” (Allmusic). The record features hits “Imitation of Life” and “All the Way to Reno (You’re Gonna Be a Star). The album reached #1 in the UK and was certified Platinum there; Reveal also peaked at #6 in the US (with 10 weeks on the Billboard 200) and was certified Gold.

“In a career lined with the long shadows of multiple iconic albums and cult favorites alike, Reveal just might be the most underrated album in a hallowed catalogue.” — Stereogum
