The Seminal American rock band R.E.M. has called it splits. The band which was fromed in Athens,Gerorgia, was comprised with Michael Stipe, Peter Buck, Mike Mills and Billy Berry, had been active since 1980. The group went up the hill after the 1987 single "The one I love", which is charted in the billboards Top 10. The band had many success albums in the 1990's. R.E.M. was known for its political activism, suppoorting feminist, gay rights, envirometal and human right causes. The group was induced in to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2007. The band won many Grammy awards. The band members of R.E.M. are very happy with there success as an band and for sticking together for the last 31 years. "They also stated what next ? " The one member of the band said: "The skill in attending a party is knowing when it's time to leave." R.E.M. are so thankful of there fans and hope to see some in the future. I believe its very hard and rare for a band that has consistently put out great music for 31 years. I also believe that achieving that many awards and induced in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is a fantastic accompishment. I hope each member continue's to do there best in any role that they participate in the future. Keep up the great work guys!
