Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith blasted off on one of the most stellar careers of the1980s with this immaculately produced, stunningly sequenced and comprised of a sequence of timeless electronic pop classics, 'The Hurting' sympathetically explored themes of childhood angst, adolescent heartache and the struggles of the transition from boy to man. An iconic blend of rhythmic percussive sounds, swirling synthesizers and soulbaring, heartfelt vocals, the Hurting went on to spend 65 weeks in the UK album chart & indelibly set the duo on their way to becoming one of the biggest acts of the decade.
