R.E.M. is an American rock band formed in Athens, Georgia, in 1980 by Michael Stipe (lead vocals), Peter Buck (guitar), Mike Mills (bass guitar), and Bill Berry (drums and percussion).
R.E.M. was one of the first popular alternative rock bands, and gained early attention due to Buck's "jangly" guitar style and Stipe's cryptic vocals.
R.E.M. released Monster, which was a return to a more rock-oriented sound, in 1994 and began its first tour in six years, which was marred by a number of medical emergencies suffered by three bandmembers.
Among R.E.M.’s achievements are a host of humanitarian awards, 3 Grammys, several number one albums, 6 Rolling Stone Covers, numerous MTV Video Music Awards, and over 70 million records sold, making the band one of the most critically and commercially successful groups of all time.
R.E.M.’s seventh record, Out of Time, was released in 1991 and became the group’s first chart-topping album in the US and UK, garnering three Grammys in the process.
R.E.M. was inducted by longtime friend Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam and shared the stage with fellow inductees Patti Smith, Van Halen, The Ronettes, and Grandmaster Flash.
