That shift matters: rather than trying to recreate older R.E.M., the record turns toward electronics, reflective ballads and a more inward mood. Michael Stipe said several songs explore a pull between religion and spirituality on one side, and science, technology and the modern age on the other.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is one of the more distinctive late-period R.E.M. albums: dreamy, moody and deliberately paced, with songs like “Daysleeper,” “Suspicion” and “At My Most Beautiful” showing how the band folded pop melody into a more atmospheric sound. Contemporary reception was stronger than its reputation sometimes suggests. \u003cem\u003eUp\u003c\/em\u003e reached No. 3 on the Billboard 200, hit No. 2 in the UK and was certified platinum there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts afterlife has also been notable.
