New Wave / Post Punk

Talking Heads were an American rock band formed in 1975 in New York City and disbanded in 1991. The band consisted of David Byrne (lead vocals, guitar), Chris Frantz (drums), Tina Weymouth (bass), and Jerry Harrison (keyboards, guitar). They released eight albums, along with several highly acclaimed live albums.

Known for their innovative sound and eclectic style, Talking Heads blended elements of new wave, post-punk, art punk, pop rock, art pop, funk rock, ethno and disco genres. Their music pushed boundaries and challenged conventions while maintaining a catchy and accessible appeal.

In recognition of their significant contributions to the music industry, Talking Heads were inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame as performers in 2002. Their unique blend of genres continues to inspire musicians and captivate audiences around the world.

Doxy is a Russian bootleg label that specializes in vinyl reissues. They have also launched the Dig-A-Log Series, which focuses on album reissues on vinyl and includes a bonus CD of the album. In addition, they have introduced a new line called ACV, using clear-native co-polymer for their vinyl process to reduce electrical distortion on records. Doxy's catalog includes CDs and boxsets.
