Being an R.E.M. fan, the jangle aspect initially hooked me. It’s stood up IMO… I’m getting a vinyl reissue copy (being released in March).

It is a fine album I still enjoy very much–which, given best songs were written by someone who killed himself, perhaps I should be more reluctant to admit (being happily married with a baby son). Ah, but it’s as you say: nostalgia for a simpler (albeit more miserable) time.
