Quick! Get yourself into the fetal position in a darkened room and put "Everybody Hurts" on a loop: R.E.M. has officially called time on being a band.

Michael Stipe & Co. made the announcement in a posting on their official site this morning, breaking the news by thanking their loyal fans for 31 years (!) of listening.

It's okay, I don't have to cry. I have their recordings so they'll always be playing where I am from time to time.

As with all bands who are 'retired' long enough, they'll be back, in some form, someday.

Looking forward to it.

They really should have done this years ago. Love the band, but the essence of REM already has been gone for quite some time.
