Episode 108: Talk Talk

Every Album Ever w/ Mike Mansour & Alex Volz

This week we’re discussing every album by Talk Talk. Led by the late Mark Hollis, Talk Talk became an 80s new wave juggernaut with their hit “It’s My Life” (famously covered by No Doubt years later). However, over the course of their 5 albums, they transformed in ways you wouldn’t believe. By the end of their career, Talk Talk essentially invented post rock as we know it today. This isn’t a band you want to miss.

Closing track: “Time It’s Time” from The Colour of Spring (1986)
