  R.E.M. shocked the rock world by announcing a wholly unexpected breakup. “As lifelong friends and co-conspirators, we have decided to call it a day as a band.We walk away with a great sense of gratitude, of finality, and of astonishment at all we have accomplished. To anyone who ever felt touched by our music, our deepest thanks for listening."

  R.E.M.乐队宣布解散这一消息出人意料,震惊了整个摇滚音乐界。“作为一生中最好的朋友和同伴,我们决定将乐队解散。我们满怀感激的离开。对于这些年来的收获,我们感到非常的吃惊。那些曾经被我们音乐打动过的人们,非常感谢你们的聆听。”

  R.E.M. was an American rock band formed in Athens, Georgia, in 1980 by singer Michael Stipe, guitarist Peter Buck, bassist Mike Mills and drummer Bill Berry. R.E.M. released its first single, "Radio Free Europe", in 1981 on the independent record label Hib-Tone. The single was followed by the Chronic Town EP in 1982. In 1983, the group released its critically acclaimed debut album. In1997, Bill Berry left the band, while Buck, Mills, and Stipe continued the group as a trio。

  R.E.M.成立于1980年,是美国的另类摇滚乐团。乐团最初的成员有迈可尔·斯蒂佩(主唱)、彼得·巴克(吉他手)、迈可·米尔斯(贝司手)和比尔·贝里(鼓手)。R.E.M。于1981年由独立录音棚Hib-Tone出版了第一支单曲“Radio Free Europe”。接下来,在1982年乐队出版了首张EP“Chronic Town”。1983年,乐队出版了广受好评的首张专辑“Murmur”。1997年,乐队成员比尔·贝里离开了乐队,只剩下巴克, 米尔斯和斯蒂佩三人继续留在乐队。

  In 2007, the band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame。

  2007年,乐队被选入摇滚名人堂。

  Guitarist Buck offered the sweetest sendoff, "Mike, Michael, Bill and I walk away as great friends. I know I will be seeing them in the future, just as I know I will be seeing everyone that has followed and supported us through the years. Even if it's only in the vinyl aisle of your local record store, or standing at the back of a club."

  吉他手巴克给予了大家最贴心的道别语,“迈可,迈克尔,比尔和我虽然分开了但仍然会是很好的朋友。我知道在未来将会再见到他们,就像我会见到这些年来一直追随和支持着乐队的你们一样。即使你只是在当地唱片店的过道里,或是站在某个俱乐部的后方(我们也可能见面)。”
