Vitamin's String Quartet Tribute to R.E.M. fits firmly into the '90s tradition of neoclassical arrangements of pop tunes. Even though R.E.M.'s songs are fairly simple, they're melodic and engaging, which is why these arrangements work fairly well, even if they sound a little forced at times. Nevertheless, it makes for reasonably enjoyable background music. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
