Description:

Das fÃ¼nfte Album von R.E.M. "Document", eine Ansammlung von allem, was die Band bisher gemacht hat. Das Album ist ein feuriges Statement, dessen einprÃ¤gsame Melodien und Riffs durch seine ehrliche Wut noch unvergesslicher werden. Mit der pulsierenden Hymne "Finest Worksong", der lebendigen Mischung aus Melancholie und wogenden Harmonien in "Welcome to the Occupation" oder dem politischen und metaphorischen, fast funkigen Rock von "Exhuming McCarthy". All das macht dieses Album zu einem weiteren Klassiker, der beweist, dass R.E.M. es als Rockband immer ernst gemeint haben! -

"Document" is the fifth studio album by American alternative rock band R.E.M., released in 1987 on LP format by I.R.S. Records. This pivotal record marked a turning point for the band, featuring hits like "The One I Love" and "It's the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine)." With its blend of jangly guitars, incisive lyrics, and socially conscious themes, "Document" propelled R.E.M. into mainstream success and showcased their evolution from college radio favorites to influential chart-toppers. The album's sound bridges post-punk energy with melodic sensibility, making it a cornerstone of '80s alternative music. R.E.M., formed in Athens, Georgia in 1980, are widely regarded as pioneers of alternative rock. Their early work helped define the genre?s soundscape through introspective songwriting and distinctive musical arrangements. By the time of "Document," they had already achieved critical acclaim with albums like "Murmur" and "Reckoning." Over their career, R.E.M. has sold millions of records worldwide and earned multiple Grammy Awards. I.R.S. Records was an influential independent label founded in 1979 that played a crucial role in launching many groundbreaking artists during the '80s new wave and alternative scenes?including The Go-Go?s and The Alarm?before being absorbed into EMI.
