* OvershadowedByAwesome: Talk Talk's early output is by no means bad, in fact it's pretty great 80s SynthPop and NewWave, it's just been overshadowed by how groundbreaking and influential their later albums are.

* TearJerker: SignatureSong: While the band's last two albums are considered their most iconic, "It's My Life" (from the earlier SynthPop duology) remains the band's best-known individual song, being their sole hit in the United States and receiving a popular CoverVersion by Music/NoDoubt.
* SurprisinglyImprovedSequel: ''The Colour of Spring'' was considered a major step up from the band's middlingly-received first two albums, moving away from their early Music/DuranDuran-influenced SynthPop sound in favor of densely-layered art pop influenced by ''fin de siècle''-era ClassicalMusic.

Not a YMMV trope.

* UnbuiltTrope: Though Talk Talk are widely considered to be the originators of PostRock (along with {{Music/Slint}}), they sound nothing like the other bands which are given that moniker. ''Laughing Stock'' in particular is just as much jazz as it is rock if not more, and the intense crescendos associated with the genre are rare in their work. Mark Hollis's solo album isn't even rock, but rather completely acoustic, minimalist folk jazz.

In particular, ''The Colour of Spring'' is considered the point where the band truly came into their own, shifting to a more complex and organic sound following a pair of Music/DuranDuran-influenced SynthPop albums that were made solely out of necessity.
