Tears For Fears The Tipping Point LP

Some 40 years into one of music's most impactful partnerships, Tears For Fears have arrived together at The Tipping Point - the group's ambitious, accomplished and surprising first new studio album in nearly two decades. An inspired song cycle that vividly recalls the depth and emotional force of the group's earliest triumphs, The Tipping Point is the bold, beautiful and powerful sound of Tears For Fears finding themselves together all over again.

Varied, poetic, and poignant, The Tipping Point is, after all this time, the very album the duo wanted to make. This set is a classic-sounding Tears for Fears record, one that makes the listener take emotional, spiritual, and mental inventory of their inner world even as the one outside roils with trouble, violence, and madness. Welcome back gents, we've missed you.

The legendary pop duo's first new album in 18 years approaches the challenges of middle life with familiar sensitivity and shared intimacy. It's a strikingly unguarded and forthright record.
