“I was a big early Genesis fan and I loved King Crimson." How Tears For Fears added prog to pop and ruled the 80s

A shared love of Blue Oyster Cult, Genesis and King Crimson saw Tears For Fears become much more than an 80s pop band.

Roland Orzabal is talking about his fondness for Genesis and King Crimson. “I was a big early Genesis fan – Foxtrot particularly. And Genesis Live was great. I loved King Crimson – especially Discipline, if you can call that prog? It depends what you define as prog. There used to be a lot of reverse snobbery – Genesis came from a public school so therefore they can’t be any good, they’re ‘not like us’. Okay, punk rock was a jolt and a Copernican inversion. We went from having long hair and playing eight-minute guitar solos in our teenage band to all of a sudden covering The Damned! Fashion is incredibly powerful in music, in the zeitgeist. You got to a certain point in the late 70s where you could not wear flares anymore. And my platform shoes had to go. It was horrendous!”

^ A big Shout out for prog fan Roland Orzabal. Thumbs Up


By the way, the flares may be long gone but I still have my gold platform shoes. Tongue

FURNITURE     Known as one of the unluckiest bands in the New Wave scene, one-hit-wonders Furniture weren't a permanent fixture in the charts, but that may have been due to their label Stiff Records having gone bankrupt shortly after signing with them, after which their career went downhill faster than Eddie 'The Eagle' Edwards. Ouch

PETER GODWIN      A former member of Glam Rock band Metro during the 1970's and New Wave musician in the 1980's, Peter Godwin now leads a neo-Balearic dance act named Nuevo, although I'm guessing that's probably best avoided. Tongue

GOLDFRAPP     An Indietronica duo consisting of Alison Goldfrapp and Will Gregory. Alison is known for her extravagant over-the-top costumes and - presumably inspired by Alice Cooper - here she is dressed as an aerobics instructor leading a group of vampires through a fitness routine - as you do. Tongue

MARTIN GORE    The co-founder of Depeche Mode breaks out on his own in a bleak industrialised Gore-fest, who somehow manages to be have a more dystopian view of the world than jolly Roger Waters. Tongue

PAUL HAIG     A Scottish baritone singer who was previously in the short-lived New Wave outfit Josef K (Who remembers them now!??), an Indie band who never aimed to be commercially successful, which is just as well really. Paul Haig repeated that "success" as a solo artist by having one single storm into the charts at #74 before just as quickly being swept away from the charts forever just two weeks later. Such is the Rhythm of Life in the notoriously cutthroat music business, where there are more sharks and pirates lurking than in a Johnny Depp movie. Confused

HEARTBEAT      Holier than Harry Secombe and no relation to Nick Berry, Heartbeat are Britain's premier pop evangelists and with four worshipful albums of danceable tunes, they preach the gospel according to Pete Waterman. Oh happy day! If you're here reading this, then I'm already preaching to the converted, but this is one band of Jehovah's Witnesses you won't want to turn away at the door. Tongue

HEAVEN 17       Named after the fictitious group mentioned in A Clockwork Orange, Heaven 17 are the fourth-most-famous Synth-Pop band from Sheffield, formed by ex-Human League members Martyn Ware and Ian Craig Marsh and led by blonde frontman Glenn Gregory, the same production trio who brought us B.E.F. (British Electric Foundation), featured here earlier. Heaven 17's first single "(We Don't Need This) Fascist Groove Thang" caused a minor controversy by being banned by the BBC, but unlike Frankie Goes to Hollywood, it didn't help their record sales, stalling at #45 after spending five weeks in the charts, so maybe it just wasn't controversial enough. Heaven 17's best-selling single "Temptation" was kept from reaching the #1 spot by David Bowie's best-selling single of all time: "Let's Dance". Well, if you're going to be outsold by anyone, then you may as well be beaten to the #1 spot by the best. Smile

HOLLYWOOD BEYOND     Yes, it's that band of one-hit-wonders fronted by a black dude who looks like he's been dragged through a hedge backwards, but thankfully, they sound better than they look. Hollywood Beyond were a Brummie band who go one step beyond the usual confines of Synth-Pop to bring you an album of highly danceable urban tunes. Something to listen to while you try and navigate your way around Birmingham's notorious Spaghetti Junction. Smile

HOT CHIP     A Synth-Pop band for the 21st Century, although Hot Chip's first three albums are about as appetising as a bag of broken biscuits, but thankfully, they get better over time. Upon listening to Hot Chip's modernist, over-produced albums though, one can't help yearning for some good old-fashioned eighties Synth-Pop - which is coming up in a jiffy in the form of The Human League. Smile

THE HUMAN LEAGUE     When it comes to Reproduction, The Human League are masters of regeneration, having gone through several major changes of personnel over the years. Their Travelogue begins in 1979 with the core line-up of Phil Oakey, Ian Craig Marsh, Martyn Ware and visual arts director Philip Adrian Wright, with Marsh and Ware later going on to form B.E.F. (British Electric Foundation) and Heaven 17. The Human League's greatest success came about by chance when Phil Oakey noticed Joanne Catherall and Susan Sulley dancing around their handbags in a Sheffield nightclub and invited them to join The Human League for a Dare, shortly after which Don't You Want Me soared straight to the top of the singles charts and stayed there for five weeks over Christmas 1981. Once the Hysteria had died down over their ground-breaking Dare album, The Human League decided to Crash out for awhile, taking a well-deserved break from recording. In the intervening period, Phil Oakey and Joanne Catherall  became involved in a Romantic? relationship which may have inspired a later album title. The Human League have continued to record over the years, having been all over the singles charts like an Octopus during their 1980's heyday. So what are the Secrets of their success? Dare to be different. That's their Credo. Smile

HURTS     This Electropop duo don't fill me with Happiness and should be consigned to Exile. I'm going to Surrender my two Hurts CD's to a charity shop pronto as I have no Desire to hear any more over-produced 21st Century pap. Instead, I'm keeping the Faith with the classic Synth-Pop of The Human League. Smile
