Our Take

Tears for Fears: Rule the World Tears for Fears' latest album, Rule the World, is a blast from the past that feels more like a gentle breeze than a storm. The synth-heavy tracks take us back to the glory days of the '80s, when big hair and bigger choruses ruled the airwaves. From the infectious hooks of "Shout" to the haunting melodies of "Everybody Wants to Rule the World," this greatest hits compilation is a testament to the band's enduring legacy. And while some may argue that Tears for Fears are past their prime, there's no denying that their music still packs a nostalgic punch. But Rule the World is not without its flaws. The production can feel a bit dated at times, and some of the tracks drag on longer than they should. But overall, this album serves as a reminder of why Tears for Fears are considered legends in the music industry. So if you're in the mood for some nostalgia and don't mind a few missteps along the way, give Rule the World a spin. Just don't be surprised if you find yourself reaching for the hairspray and shoulder pads before the final track fades out.
