The discography of English rock band The Psychedelic Furs consists of seven studio albums, 22 singles, six compilation albums, and two live albums.
The Psychedelic Furs formed in 1977 and released its eponymous debut album in 1980. It reached number 18 on the UK Albums Chart[1] and number 140 on the U.S. Billboard 200.[2] The band's second album, Talk Talk Talk, followed in 1981. It reached the top 10 of the charts in New Zealand and contained the band's first two charting UK singles, "Dumb Waiters" and "Pretty in Pink".[1] The band released its third album, Forever Now, in 1982. It featured the single "Love My Way", which nearly reached the top 40 in both the U.S. and the UK.[1]
Mirror Moves, the band's fourth album, was released in 1984 and peaked at number 15 in the UK and number 43 in the U.S.,[1][2] and included the charting singles "Heaven", "The Ghost in You", and "Heartbeat".[1] In 1986, the band re-recorded "Pretty in Pink" for the soundtrack to the film of the same name starring Molly Ringwald.[3] This version of the song was included on the band's Midnight to Midnight album, released in 1987. Peaking at number 12 in the UK and number 29 in the U.S., the album was the highest-charting of the band's career in those countries. The next year, the band released its first compilation album, All of This and Nothing, which was followed by their sixth studio album, Book of Days, in 1989.
The band split soon after the release of 1991's World Outside. Singer Richard Butler and his brother, bassist Tim Butler, started the band Love Spit Love in 1992, but The Psychedelic Furs reformed in 2000 and released the 2001 live album Beautiful Chaos: Greatest Hits Live—featuring a new studio recording, "Alive (For Once In My Lifetime)—as well as a DVD version of the performance titled Live from the House of Blues.
