Blondie was the most commercially successful band to emerge from the much-vaunted punk/new wave movement of the late '70s. The group was formed in New York City in August 1974 by singer Deborah Harry and guitarist Chris Stein. They released their first album, Blondie, on Private Stock Records in December 1976.

Blondie, America's greatest pop band, is back on the scene with an amazing new album "The Curse of Blondie." It's a monster in more ways than one. It's a real Blondie masterwork, with fourteen powerful new songs - probably the most musically varied and experimental album in the group's history. It's also a monster because giant hits seem to lurk within it, threatening to explode at any moment. And it's also a monster because it flirts with the noir world of horror flicks and carries the ironic title "The Curse of Blondie." It's tongue in cheek, but...
Consider the fact that the band took sixteen years off between their sixth and seventh albums. Consider the fact that dissension broke up the group at the peak of their enormous success. Consider that Chris, the group's guitarist and hit writer, almost died of a rare and mysterious disease. Consider the fact that many of the group's closest associates in the new wave and punk movements are now in the grave or living in Florida. Consider the fact that the new album was four years in the making. Maybe there's something to this title.

Blondie are really underated, they're a amazing band yet alwyas written off as fluffy pop. Plus the fact thta Debrah Harry is one of the hottest lead singers ever makes the band that much more appealing 3nodding

i actually didn't know that Blondie had made a new album...and that's weird how "The Curse of Blondie" goes so well with the events that happened to them recently.
i fell in love with blondie when i first heard their 1979/80 classic "Heart of Glass," and i found other songs by them...
to think about it more, i actually have not listened to one of their songs for awhile XD
