On Fear Of Music, however, they began to experiment with tape loops and Afrobeat rhythms together with their producer Brian Eno. Talking Heads began their career as a fidgety, cerebral post-punk band, inspired by their New York contemporaries Television. If you listen to Remain In Light after the previous album without knowing the background story, it actually seems like a logical continuation. With Remain in Light, they were breaking genre boundaries, experimenting with African-influenced polyrhythm, rock steady and the rap of Fela Kuti. In spite of all the inner rifts that were going on between the members, they still released what might be the best album of their career. At the end of 1980, The Talking Heads were actually no longer a band.
