About the artist

The Human League

Human League - Synthpop Pioneers or Just a Bunch of '80s Relics? Ah, The Human League. The pioneers of synthpop have been gracing our ears since the late '70s, with their infectious hits and iconic electronic sound. But are they still relevant in today's music scene, or are they just a relic of the '80s, like a forgotten pair of leg warmers? Formed in Sheffield in 1977, The Human League quickly rose to fame with their breakthrough album "Dare" in 1981, which gave us the timeless classics "Don't You Want Me" and "Love Action". Their unique blend of catchy melodies and cutting-edge synth sounds set them apart from their peers, and cemented their place in music history. But fast forward to 2021, and the question remains: are The Human League still a force to be reckoned with? Well, their recent album "Credo" may not have set the charts on fire, but tracks like "Night People" and "Never Let Me Go" prove that they still have that magic touch when it comes to creating infectious pop tunes. Sure, their hairstyles may have changed (we miss those iconic mullets!), and their fashion sense may have evolved (thank god for that!), but one thing remains constant: The Human League are a band that knows how to make us dance, cry, and everything in between. So, next time you're feeling nostalgic for the '80s, or just fancy a good old-fashioned synthpop fix, why not give The Human League a spin? Who knows, you might just rediscover why they were one of the most influential bands of the decade.
