R.E.M. - Collapse Into Now (2023 Reissue) THE WEEKND From the new wave openerLP 180g Black Vinyl. Collapse Into Now is R. E. M.s fifteenth and final studio album. Released in 2011, the band aimed to create an expansive, varied album; there are slow, beautiful songs juxtaposed with fast paced rock songs. The band cites the record as more personal than political, intending to touch upon universal themes. [Collapse Into Now] bristles and fizzes with invigorating quantities of wit and fury.
