You’d be hard-pressed to find a bad song on Document. There are songs here that are legendary. Everyone will remember “It’s the End of the World as We Know it” and “The One I Love”. But “Exhuming McCarthy” is absolutely unforgettable with its driving beats, bass hooks, and unique musical personality. It was distinctly R.E.M. in sound, but it also had its own identity. It sounded like it was a blast to perform and record - and it’s still a blast to listen to over 30 years later.
