“Hey baby, this is not a challenge,” R.E.M.’s first single in two years begins. “It just means that I love you as much as I always said I did.”
Musically, “Discoverer” has what can be referred to as “that R.E.M. sound.” Astute listeners may find snatches of “Turn You Inside-Out” and “Believe” in its shifting, minor-key melody.
