What Is Music?: A Music Podcast About R.E.M. Adam Scott Glasspool, Steve Murphy, Lucas Way
-
- 音楽
A podcast about discographies. A different artist every season. Currently in Season 6! Join Adam, Steve, and Lucas, as they go album by album, track by track, to find out if context can change your experience of music, how people become obsessed with artists, and to ultimately answer the question 'what is music?' Expect in-depth analysis, tedious tangents, controversial music opinions, and an exhaustive attitude to context. Also expect to find out more about the artists (and the hosts) than anyone could ever want to know! Previous seasons have covered Manic Street Preachers, Muse, Billie Eilish, and Radiohead!

Document (Pt. 2)
The Big Mates discuss Christmas tree etiquette, goose related nightmares, Flea from Red Hot Chilli Peppers, and Document by R.E.M.
Adam, Steve, and Lucas continue their deep dive into the career and discography of R.E.M. by finishing up their track-by-track analysis of the band's fifth studio album, released in 1987. They talk about the writing and recording process, the context surrounding the songs, and offer up analysis, opinions, and thoughts from three differing perspectives on music, from being deeply into analysis and music, to not caring for art or critique, and everything in between.
They bring the track-by-track to a close, exploring the meaning of the songs, the differences between the first and second half, and explore two of the biggest R.E.M. songs that they have encountered so far. They sum up their thoughts on the album, give scores, and discuss how it was received when it came out.
They also find time to discuss the legacy and influence of the album, the band's Work Tour of 1987, and the end of their recording contract with IRS.
How do we feel about the album? Do you know what a dulcimer sounds like? Why is Lucas the James Bond guy? Find out on this episode of What Is Music?
Our next episode is out on Monday April 22nd and will see us offering some audio commentary for the first R.E.M. video release, Succumbs.

Document (Pt. 1)
The Big Mates discuss file naming conventions, Role Models, trickle-down economics, and Document by R.E.M.
Adam, Steve, and Lucas continue their deep dive into the career and discography of R.E.M. by starting their analysis of the band's fifth studio album, released in 1987. They talk about the writing and recording process, the context surrounding the songs, and offer up analysis, opinions, and thoughts from three differing perspectives on music, from being deeply into analysis and music, to not caring for art or critique, and everything in between.
They touch on how the band used the skills they learned on the previous album, the search for a more muscular sound, and the beginnings of their relationship with a new producer.
They also tackle the meaning of the album's title, what exactly features on the album's artwork, and they find the time to reflect on what they have learned about R.E.M.'s sound so far, and explore the political landscape of the US in the 1980s.
How does all of that fit into Document? Is it heavy metal? Who is David Strathairn? Find out on this episode of What Is Music?
Our next episode is out on Monday April 15th and will continue and conclude our analysis of Document.

Dead Letter Office
The Big Mates discuss liner notes, The Velvet Underground, being nice, and Dead Letter Office by R.E.M.
Adam, Steve, and Lucas continue their deep dive into the career and discography of R.E.M. by exploring the collection of b-sides they released in 1987. They talk about where each track came from, the context surrounding the songs, and offer up analysis, opinions, and thoughts from three differing perspectives on music, from being deeply into analysis and music, to not caring for art or critique, and everything in between.
They touch on the collection in general, whether b-sides should be taken seriously, and whether or not R.E.M. are the band to do that! They get to explore a range of moods along the way, from soft country, to heavy metal pastiche, to classic rock covers, and beyond... a must!
Why is this some people's favourite R.E.M. album? How can you listen to this podcast being recorded live? How do you surf the web? Find out on this episode of What Is Music?
Our next episode is out on Monday April 1st and will be a report from The Smile Live in Brighton!

Lifes Rich Pageant (Pt. 3)
The Big Mates discuss Godzilla, a car crash, The Lion King, and Lifes Rich Pageant by R.E.M.
Adam, Steve, and Lucas continue their deep dive into the career and discography of R.E.M. by finishing up their track-by-track analysis of the band's fourth studio album, released in 1986. They talk about the writing and recording process, the context surrounding the songs, and offer up analysis, opinions, and thoughts from three differing perspectives on music, from being deeply into analysis and music, to not caring for art or critique, and everything in between.
They bring the track-by-track to a close, exploring the meaning of the songs, the varying energies across the album, and talk about what does and does not constitute a "hidden track." They sum up their thoughts on the album, give scores, and discuss how it was received when it came.
They also find time to discuss the band's 1986 Pageantry Tour, what that was like, and whether or not the album predicted grunge in some ways.
How do we feel about the album? Does it sound like R.E.M.? What is a flam? Find out on this episode of What Is Music?
Our next episode is out on Monday March 18th and will see us offering some audio commentary on a selection of clips from across R.E.M.'s career.
