Release Date: 1987 | Tracklist


Document had some great songs and some good songs and some not so great , but I couldn't find any bad ones. It contains the well-known song "It's The End of the World As We Know It".

RECCOMENDED TRACKS:

Welcome To The Occupation- This track has a slightly western sound. It has excellent and interesting lyrics.

Exhuming McCarthy- This track has an upbeat begining and a good guitar part. It also has a little ska style, including some trumpets. It also has interesting lyrics.

Strange- This track has a great guitar introduction. It also the repeated theme of strange goings on.

It's The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)- This song has a extremely catchy chorus that never gets boring (even though they repeat the same line at lest twenty times). The lyrics are amusing and well-orchestrated, as they are sung at a fast speed.

King of Birds- This starts with an odd, twangy guitar line and some awesome lyrics. It goes into two voices singing the repeated phrase "Standing on the shoulders of giants leaves me cold."

Oof, WAY to short. At least go into some detail about each song. Just make your next review a little longer.

hmm. So now I know there are great songs, good songs, and some not so great. And what the beginning of 5 songs sound like.
