Chronic Town
Chronic Town is an EP released by the band R.E.M in 1982 for IRS Records. Chronic Town is the first illustration of R.E.M's signature musical style: jangling guitars, chords played in arpeggio, murmured vocals, and lyrics that completely avoid the standard topics of popular music - love and relationships. It was re-released as tracks 16-21 of the 1987 album Dead Letter Office, where it was described in the liner notes as "a little bit of 'uh-huh' and a lot of 'oh yeah'".
The band was unhappy with the sound of the record, when it was released, although fans and critics hailed it as a great achievement.
