Talking Heads have gathered some of their early rarities on a new compilation album for Record Store Day’s 2025 Black Friday event. Tentative Decisions features demos of songs that would later appear on the band’s first two albums—1777’s Talking Heads: 77 and 1978’s More Songs About Buildings and Food—alongside a live recording of “Artists Only” from the Lower Manhattan Ocean Club and versions of “Psycho Killer” and “Warning Sign” credited to David Byrne and Chris Frantz’s first band, the Artistics. The LP will exclusively be available at participating record stores beginning this Friday, November 28.
To celebrate their 50th anniversary as a band earlier this year, Talking Heads shared a new music video for “Psycho Killer” directed by Mike Mills and starring Saoirse Ronan. They also reissued Talking Heads: 77 in 2024.
