The Ever Popular Tortured Artist Effect is a 1982 album by Todd Rundgren. The album continues the modernized, synth-laden approach of its predecessor, replete with lyrics that further probe the human psyche on several numbers. The angular, neon-toned “Influenza” and the self-harmonized, humorously worded “Don’t Hurt Yourself” are among the highlights.
Tracklist:
A1. Hideaway
A2. Influenza
A3. Don’t Hurt Yourself
A4. There Goes Your Baybay
B1. Tin Soldier
B2. Emperor of the Highway
B3. Bang the Drum All Day
B4. Drive
B5. Chant
