The discography of The Bangles, an American all-female band, consists of five studio albums, ten compilation albums, one extended play, twenty-five singles, and three video albums. In 1981, Hoffs and the Petersons recorded and released a single (" Getting Out of Hand" with "Call on Me" on the B side) on DownKiddie Records (their own label). The Bangs were signed to Faulty Products, a label formed by Miles Copeland. [12] The single became their biggest worldwide hit and the biggest single by an all-female band in history.

[25] Hoffs said she felt it was like 'skinny dipping' and recorded most of the rest of the album naked. [26] Breakup (1989) [ edit ] a b Fissinger, Laura (March 13, 1986).
