Dexys Midnight Runners - Breaking Down The Walls Of Heartache

Breaking Down The Walls Of Heartache is taken from Searching for the Young Soul Rebels, the début studio album by Dexys Midnight Runners, released on 11 July 1980, through EMI Records. Led by Kevin Rowland, the group formed in 1978 in Birmingham, England, and formed a strong live reputation before recording their first material. Recorded during April 1980, the album combines the aggressiveness of punk rock with soul music, particularly influenced by the Northern soul movement.
