DESCRIPTION
Tears for Fears is a British new wave band that emerged in the early 1980s. Their debut album, "The Hurting," was released in 1983 and quickly established the band as one of the leading voices of the genre. The album was produced by Chris Hughes and Ross Cullum, and it features a blend of synthesizer-based pop and emotionally charged lyrics.

"The Hurting" is notable for its introspective and deeply personal lyrics, which explore themes of alienation, trauma, and mental health. Lead singer Roland Orzabal has described the album as a response to his own experiences with childhood trauma and the subsequent therapy he received to deal with it. This emotional honesty and vulnerability helped to set Tears for Fears apart from their peers in the new wave scene.

Musically, "The Hurting" is characterized by its use of synthesizers and electronic drums, which give the album a distinctive sound. Standout tracks on the album include the hit singles "Mad World," "Pale Shelter," and "Change," as well as the epic closing track "The Hurting."

The success of "The Hurting" helped to establish Tears for Fears as one of the leading bands of the 1980s. The album was a commercial and critical success, and it paved the way for the band's subsequent releases, including "Songs from the Big Chair" and "Seeds of Love."

Overall, "The Hurting" is a landmark album in the history of new wave music. Its combination of emotionally charged lyrics and innovative synth-pop production helped to set the standard for the genre, and it remains a classic work that continues to resonate with fans today.
