Feb 25, 2022Great production, good songwriting, nice atmosphere, the album doesn't bore for a second. It sounds familiar, but also very modern. A great comeback from two of pop's greatest artists.

Feb 26, 2022Sounds from the future. And lyrics to get us there. Joyous yet truthful. Just when we needed it most. Listen. Love.

Mar 24, 2022This is more representative of a debut or sophomore album, not a band 40 years beyond their initial rise to fame. The album is lush, colorful, resonant, and thoughtful. The music cascades, evolves, and runs its course through indie-alt, dream pop, and mainstream pop-rock. There are few dull moments, and some exceptional highs like "Rivers Of Mercy." Love it.

Feb 25, 2022Classic TFF without sounding like they're stuck in the 80s. There's a freshness to this album whilst sounding familiar... the production and songwriter are superb.

Mar 15, 2022Simultaneously sounding aged to perfection as well as perfectly in tune with the pop landscape of today, "The Tipping Point" deftly demonstrates how some things only get better with age as Tears for Fears combine glittering synths, slinky guitars, and crisp, infectious pop melodies to craft a record that easily stands as one of their best, if not their very best, efforts to date.

Apr 5, 2022Really surprised with how good the album turned out. Not a single bad song in my opinion.
-
Feb 28, 2022There are at least 4 songs that will be amongst their greatest songs once their career concludes. Really solid album!
-
Mar 25, 2022This is a good comeback! It has various of styles and the concept is solid. If TFF was a new indie band - their debut album could sound ike this one.
-
Mar 30, 2022This is quite good. Well produced polished sound. A few genres in this. Not ground breaking - but I’m my top 10 so far this year.
-
Jun 10, 2022A Masterpiece and TfF's first album in 20 Years.
I have a strong feeling we should be grateful to have this piece of art. It's amazing! -
Sep 7, 2022After 18 years, their finest album. And featuring two of their most emotional songs ever: Rivers of Mercy and Long long long time

Mar 2, 2022Anthemic, emotional, powerful – The Tipping Point is a very good record.
-
Mar 2, 2022An album that feels like the most fully realized record Tears for Fears have ever made, a culmination of the musical and emotional themes they’ve held dear since their inception.

Feb 28, 2022Not everything lands, and not everything that lands sticks. Even so, there aren't many 17-year hiatuses that end by presenting a group with plenty of gas left in the tank. "When I'm 40 years older/When I'm wrinkled and wise," sings Orzabal — and The Tipping Point makes a compelling argument that it will be worth the wait.
