“ During our last tour, and while making Collapse Into Now and putting together this greatest hits retrospective, we started asking ourselves, ‘what next’? Working through our music and memories from over three decades was a hell of a journey. We realized that these songs seemed to draw a natural line under the last 31 years of our working together.”
Mike Mills on disbanding REM.
A great way to end a 30 year old band is to wander back from experimentation and understand your earlier sparks with greater maturity. REM’s last few albums accomplished this, coalescing their careers with a solid point of view regarding one of the strongest catalogues in rock music.
