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."
