About The Record:

Idle Tears by Idle Tears is a **self-titled album** from an American female-fronted AOR band led by vocalist **Liz Constantine** and guitarist **Dan Pritzker**, originally hailing from Chicago before relocating to Los Angeles. The record showcases polished mid-80s melodic rock with prominent synthesizers, strong vocal performances, and catchy hooks typical of the genre. A unique aspect is its status as the band's only release, which has since become a highly sought-after collector's item among AOR enthusiasts due to its rarity and quality. Fan-favorites include the atmospheric Love In The Dark, the mid-tempo Take Me Home, the charming ballad Oh No, and the upbeat Paradise. The album features solid production and songwriting that highlight Constantine's powerful vocals blended with melodic guitar work.
