Arguably the Furs finest hour, TALK TALK TALK is the perfect combination of gritty post-punk attack and angular, Bowie-ish art-pop. "Pretty in Pink" would become the band's signature tune when it was used in the John Hughes movie of the same name a few years later. Deservedly so, as it's a winning mixture of romantic desolation and pop-rock drive.
The Furs also score with this combination on the explicit "Into You Like a Train" and "I Wanna Sleep With You," Richard Butler's tawdry rasp sounding right at home amid the hook-filled debauchery. Despite all the "romanticism," the band's iconoclasm is still firmly in place, as seen on "Mr. Jones," an update of Dylan's "Ballad of a Thin Man." TALK TALK TALK is where post-punk art and pure pop heart meet in a serendipitous multi-car pileup.
Industry Reviews
3 Stars - Good - ...still one of the most exciting post-punk sounds....their dark, echoey wall of sound takes on a life of its own....Richard Butler's hoarse, sub-Lydon sneer and mocking portrayal of messed-up characters provides the perfect vocal complement to that flying, swirling sound...
Q (07/01/1996)
...Spunkier and poppier and sported the original 'Pretty In Pink'...
Mojo (05/01/2002)
...Their best by far... - Rating: A-
Entertainment Weekly (03/08/2002)
3 out of 5 stars - ...Amongst a slew of early-'80s British acts who had American sucess...John Hughes would build a film around [track] Pretty in Pink...
Q (05/01/2002)
Ranked #5 in CMJ's Top 20 Most-Played Albums of 1981.
