The Heads releasedSpeaking in Tongues, the first album of new material in three years, in 1983. (A limited edition release of 50,000 copies featured a complex cover designed by artist Robert Rauschenberg. Subsequent copies boasted a simpler design by Byrne.) It was their highest-charting album ever (Number 15, 1983) and yielded their biggest hit single, "Burning Down the House" (Number Nine, 1983), which was also featured in an eye-catching video that MTV had in heavy rotation. They toured with an expanded band including Alex Weir, a guitarist with the Brothers Johnson. The tour was documented in the acclaimed movie Stop Making Sense, directed by Jonathan Demme. The soundtrack (Number 41, 1984) spent nearly two years on the pop albums chart.

Departing from denser experimental textures, the band embraced propulsive rhythms, funk bass lines, and tighter song structures, fueled by contributions from new collaborators such as Bernie Worrell and Alex Weir. The recording process followed a hiatus during which members pursued side projects, giving them space to recombine influences and ideas.
