Celebrating its 40th anniversary in 2022, R.E.M.'s debut EP 'Chronic Town' will be released for the first time ever as a standalone CD with extensive liner notes by the original producer Mitch Easter (Let's Active). Featuring such adored classics in the band's repertoire as 'Gardening At Night', 'Wolves, Lower' and '1,000,000,' the five song EP, as Rolling Stone noted, 'served notice that R.E.M. was an outfit to watch'. As a debut release, R.E.M.'s 'Chronic Town' was an anomaly... a record that didn't quite fit into the constraints of what was played on the radio. 'Chronic Town's' impact and influence on the future of alternative music is uncontested and described by Magnet Magazine as 'essentially a template for the entire indie-rock movement'.
