In 1983, Tears For Fears' debut album, The Hurting, was released
after the success of their iconic single, 'Mad World'. Whilst
embracing the popularity of synth pop, Roland Orzabal and Curt
Smith created an album that had a darker edge to it. Commercially
it was a bold move but with memorable melodies and catchy rhythms,
it paid off - all whilst making reference to the work of
psychologist Arthur Janov. In this book, music author Laura Shenton
MA LLCM DipRSL offers an in depth perspective on The Hurting from a
range of angles including how the album came to be, how it was
presented and received at the time (live as well as on record), and
what it means in terms of Tears For Fears' legacy today. As the
author explains: "Basically, the book covers how the album was
made, what was going on with the music in terms of the artist's
intentions, how it did musically and commercially and what happened
next." The narrative is essentially driven by contemporary
interviews with the artists with small bits of music theory where
relevant... in some cases they delve into the structure / key
signatures / time signatures, based on the original sheet music
without straying away from being an engaging read for
non-musicians.
