Formed in
the English city of Sheffield in 1977, The Human League were early
pioneers of the British synth-pop movement, earning street cred within the
art-pop scene of the late 70's. They signed to Virgin Records in 1979, the same
year David Bowie described them as "the sound of the future”, and he was
bang on.
The group continued to innovate and expand with Sulley and Catherall joining the band at the end of 1980. They had a worldwide smash with their third album Dare,which contained four hit singles including 'Don't You Want Me'.
In a career spanning nine studio albums and 20 million album sales, their songs are still sampled and played across dance floors worldwide and their live reputation grows with each passing year.
