The Human League is one of the most influential British synth-pop bands and a key figure in the evolution of electronic music. Formed in Sheffield in 1978, the group fuses innovative synthesizers with melodic lyrics and a futuristic aesthetic, defining the sound of an entire generation. Their global breakthrough came in 1981 with Dare, an album that included the iconic "Don't You Want Me," a song that not only defined the 1980s but remains essential in pop history.
