Break The Man marks the third single from their first new album in 17 years, 'The Tipping Point', due out on February 25 via Concord Records.
With light piano and shimmering guitar lines, it explores themes of female empowerment and follows the previously unveiled title track, and No Small Thing. Curt Smith said:
"Break The Man is about a strong woman, and breaking the patriarchy. I feel that a lot of the problems we’ve been having as a country and even worldwide to a certain degree has come from male dominance. It’s a song about a woman who is strong enough to break the man. For me, that would be an answer to a lot of the problems in the world – a better male-female balance."
The legendary synth-pop group will kick off The Tipping Point World Tour in the United States this spring, followed by UK dates in the summer. Tickets are on sale now.
