Tears For Fears - The Hurting

Tears For Fears - The Hurting is the band's debut album. The Hurting is a landmark in early‑80s synth‑pop and a deeply emotional, psychologically‑charged record built on icy electronics, sharp hooks and Roland Orzabal’s introspective songwriting. It remains one of the most influential albums of the era, laying the groundwork for the band’s later global success.
