Limited purple vinyl pressing. Naked was the band’s last studio album before they split and went their separate ways. Features ‘Blind’, ‘(Nothing But) Flowers’ and more.
“Naked” (1988) is the final studio album by Talking Heads, a band known for their eclectic blend of new wave, art rock, post-punk, and funk. The record explores themes of urban decay, environmental concerns, and human nature. Musically, it features vibrant, global influences, particularly Afrobeat and Latin rhythms, marking a departure from their earlier, more minimalist sound. The album is layered with brass, intricate percussion, and polyrhythms, creating a rich, textural soundscape. Frontman David Byrne’s distinctive, quirky vocal style remains central to the band’s identity, blending intellectual lyrics with infectious grooves, emphasizing their fusion of world music and avant-garde rock sensibilities.
