The Knack discography

The discography of American power pop band the Knack consists of 7 studio albums, 3 live albums, 5 compilation albums, 16 singles, and 3 video albums. The band first gained success with their debut single, "My Sharona", first released on the band's debut studio album, Get the Knack, on the 11th of June, 1979, before being released as a separate single on the 18th. The single would reach number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and become the band's signature hit, while the album it came from also hit number 1 on the Billboard 200. The second single, "Good Girls Don't" would also be a decent success, hitting number 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 and reaching number 1 in Canada.

The band's second studio album, ...But the Little Girls Understand, would release on the 15th of February, 1980, and would chart much less than its predecessor, only hitting number 15 on the Billboard 200. Meanwhile, the album's lead single, "Baby Talks Dirty", would only hit number 38 on the Billboard Hot 100, while the second and final single from the album, "Can't Put a Price on Love", hit number 62. The band's third studio album, Round Trip, released in October 1981, fared even lower, hitting number 93, with its lead single, "Pay the Devil (Ooo, Baby, Ooo)", charting at number 67, and the second single, "Boys Go Crazy" not hitting the Billboard Hot 100 at all. The band would later break up a year later, in 1982.

Four years after their initial breakup, in 1986, the band reunited, and five years later, on January 15, 1991, the band would release their fourth studio album, Serious Fun. The album would be the first from the band to not chart on the Billboard 200 at all, and the only chart the album hit was the Canadian Albums chart. The band would then break up again in 1992, although they would reunite again in 1994, and then once more in 1996. After their 1996 reunion, the band released three more studio albums, Zoom on June 14, 1998, Normal as the Next Guy on September 25, 2001, and Re-Zoom, a reissue of Zoom, in 2003. The band would break up once more in 2010, after lead singer, Doug Fieger, died on February 14. After his death, the band dropped their final studio album, ', on September 11, 2012. None of the band's final four studio albums charted.
