About this album
Dare is the album that turned The Human League from electronic experimenters into one of pop’s biggest crossover acts. Released in 1981, it refined Sheffield synth-pop into sleek, hook-heavy songs with human drama at their core, helped by producer Martin Rushent’s crisp, future-facing studio sound. The album’s balance of icy keyboards, memorable melodies and relatable romantic tension made it a defining statement of early-’80s pop. Powered by landmarks such as Love Action (I Believe in Love) and the global smash Don’t You Want Me, Dare became one of the era’s most influential and commercially successful British albums.
