This recording is more relevant NOW than 1987. Just give it a listen and you will know what I mean.

    Great album, I've owned it ever since my sophmore year in high school. I saw Rolling Stone gave it 5 stars. Anyways, i can totally relate to that album. Life's Rich Pagent is also excellent. My fav though is Automatic.
    You are just a negative mindless pud.

    I gotta agree that Automatic is their best. I also love New Adventures. it seems like every other album they release is GREAT, and every other album SUCKS. as for the old (pre-90) stuff, I got the "IRS greatest hits". are they even together anymore??? the album "Up" sucked ass. did they release anything after that? Out of Time, Automatic, and New Adventures were CLASSIC. Monster sucked.

    I also love new adventures in hifi. I disagree on the other albums though, monster is AWESOME, and up was one of their first albums I got, and it an amazing album.

    You're missing out.

    when i buy an album that sucks, i immediately rip the track or two that may not suck, make a deposit at the used cd outlet and get some money back. i don't have any records that suck. i let other suckers have them.
    Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
    As she slams the door in his drunken face
    And now he stands outside
    And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
    He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
    What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
    Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
    And his tears fall and burn the garden green

    Document is my favorite R.E.M. album and I still own it on cassette. That was the first album I ever bought and it really turned me onto music.

    Welcome to the Occupation is my favorite track. "Fire on the hemisphere below......"
