Tears for Fears are an English pop rock band formed in Bath, England in 1981 by Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith. Founded after the dissolution of their first band, the mod-influenced Graduate, Tears for Fears were initially associated with the new wave synthesiser bands of the early 1980s. Later, the band branched out into mainstream rock and pop and attained international chart success. Tears for Fears were part of the MTV-driven Second British Invasion of the US.

The Hurting is the debut album by the British new wave band Tears for Fears. It was released on 7 March 1983, and peaked at no. 1 on the UK Album Chart. The album was certified Gold by the BPI within three weeks of release, and reached Platinum status in January 1985. The album contains Tears For Fears' first three hit singles – Mad World, Change, and Pale Shelter – all of which reached the Top 5 in the UK. It also contains a new version of the band’s first single, Suffer The Children, which had originally been released in 1981

The Hurting would be Tears for Fears’ most collaborative effort. Curt and Roland nearly equal each other in the lead vocal department with the opening title track featuring both as the frontmen. With each progressive album, TFF would become more and more Roland’s brainchild as he agonized over every nuance and dominated the microphone. I am hard pressed to think of any other band that featured one singer on every successful pop single, with resulting albums favoring the & singer.

Tears For Fears is one of my favourite bands and their debut album, "The Hurting", has a very powerful impact. If you can't believe me, just listen to the lyrics in this album  . 6 people found this helpful.

With a comprehensive look at the beginnings of Tears For Fears, the liner notes also dive into the origins of The Hurting and plenty of quotes about the album directly from Roland and Curt themselves. Finally, written and organized by Paul Sinclair, this is a wonderful glimpse into the history of Tears For Fears. The magic of the album is captured perfectly in this package paying homage to one of new wave music’s biggest bands
