The band were asked by their (then) management company to collaborate with various younger artists in an attempt to create a more contemporary- and commercial-sounding album. Work on the album began in 2013, but the process proved difficult for band members Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith. The album also accumulated a total of 2.04 million on-demand official streams from the set’s tracks. This became the band's third US top-ten album on the chart and their first release to achieve this since their 1989 album The Seeds of Love. In the United States, the album debuted at number eight on the US Billboard 200 chart, earning 31,000 album-equivalent units (including 29,000 copies in pure traditional album sales, and 2,000 in streaming and song downloads) in its first week, according to MRC Data. It also reached the Top 10 in numerous other countries including the US, Australia, France, Germany, Ireland, Switzerland, Belgium and The Netherlands. The album was a critical and commercial success, giving the band their sixth UK Top-5 album and highest chart peak in 30 years when it debuted at number 2 on the UK Album Chart (and actually topped the chart in the Scottish region). Further singles followed, with "No Small Thing" released in December 2021, and "Break the Man" in January 2022. Tracks on the album include "The Tipping Point", which was released with a music video in October 2021. It is the band's first studio album since Everybody Loves a Happy Ending, released almost 18 years prior. ![]() The Tipping Point is the seventh studio album by the English pop rock band Tears for Fears, released on 25 February 2022 through Concord Records. ![]()
