Released in February 1980, this album is composed of several tracks from the band's May 1979 debut album Three Imaginary Boys (which had yet to see a U.S. release) with material from the band's 1978-1979 era. ReleaseBoys Don't Cry was released on 5 February 1980 by record label Fiction. According to AllMusic, the album "[falls] somewhere between [an] official release and compilation", and was released "in hopes of increasing the band's exposure outside of the U.K."[1]Reception{{album ratings| rev1 = AllMusic | rev1score = {{rating|4.5|5}}[1] | rev2 = Q | rev2score = {{Rating|4|5}}[2] | rev3 = The Rolling Stone Album Guide | rev3score = {{Rating|3.5|5}}[3] | rev4 = The Village Voice | rev4score = B+[4] }}Boys Don't Cry has been generally well received by critics. Debra Rae Cohen of Rolling Stone wrote that the album "proves they can transcend their Comp. Lit. 201 (Elementary Angst) scenarios".[5] Robert Christgau of The Village Voice called the band's sound "dry post-punk, never pretty but treated with a properly mnemonic pop overlay" and was more reserved in his praise, adding, "I can look over the titles and recall a phrase from all but a few of these 13 songs. Intelligent phrases they are, too, yet somehow I find it hard to get really excited about them".[4] In 2003, the album was ranked at No. 442 on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 best albums ever. In the 2012 update of the same list, it moved up the list to No. 438.
