"... deeply moving and entirely idiosyncratic ... rich and subdued, full of lush strings and deep feeling ... show the band moving into more personal territory than ever before, with clearer, less ambiguous emotion ... what may become the band’s greatest triumph: reaching everyone in the world while still sounding like no one but themselves. A. "
- Entertainment Weekly
"Five Stars ... R.E.M. has never made music more gorgeous than Nightswimming and Find The River, the ballads that close Automatic For The People and sum up its twilit, soulful intensity ... this is the members of R.E.M. delving deeper than ever; grown sadder and wiser, the Athens subversives reveal a darker vision that shimmers with new, complex beauty ... most of Automatic is musically irresistible."
- Rolling Stone
Nominated for a Grammy Award for Album of the Year, Automatic For The People hit number one in the UK, number two in the US and is considered by many fans to be R.E.M.'s best work. With global sales near 18 million copies, the album certainly ranks among the band's biggest sellers. Several of the songs, full of lush strings, were arranged by John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin fame. Among the many highlights here is Man On The Moon, written for Miloš Forman's Andy Kaufman biopic of the same title.
