About this album
The Headboys is a sharp, overlooked debut that blends New Wave urgency with bright pop-rock hooks. Released in 1979, the album captures a band aiming for the taut energy of late-’70s guitar pop while keeping the songs direct and radio-friendly. Its best moments, including 'The Shape Of Things To Come' and 'My Favourite D.J.', show a group with a feel for crisp riffs, tight harmonies and immediate choruses. Though it never became a major chart breakthrough, the record remains a strong snapshot of the era’s transition from punk’s edge to more polished, melodic rock.
