Released 1981Punk & New Wave
Start here
A bright new-wave-pop debut that topped the charts, home to 'Our Lips Are Sealed'. Tuneful and beloved. A landmark. A single-album presence that punches well above its weight.
On vinyl: '80s originals are plentiful and usually affordable; reissues tend to be cleaner but pricier.
