The Fixx, a new wave band from Great Britain, released their debut album Shuttered Room in August 1982. It had previously been released in England in May of that year.
It generated two singles, the first of which, Stand or Fall reached #7 on Billboard's Mainstream Rock charts, but only #76 on Billboard's Hot 100. The second single Red Skies reached #13 on the Mainstream Rock charts.
I'm a little surprised this album didn't do better, because I really like their sound, and they got a lot of airplay on MTV. I actually heard them as the background music of a commercial I just saw. Weird!
