The Future of Music

LiLo | 09/01/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I do not know who tagged Gary Numan onto Ultravox but the person should be ashamed.

Midge Ure's vocalizations are nothing like Numan's. Allegedly Ure was pegged to become the Sex Pistol's lead singer but turned down the spot joining with Ultravox. Overnight Ultravox went from a punk rock band (led by their previous singer John Foxx) to a band built around Midge Ure's smooth superb vocalizations. Few males can achieve achieve Ure's vocal range, certainly not Gary Numan.

Do not expect to hear any type of punk music. Instead I would compare Ultravox to New Order's sound. The difference being a smoother mixture of classical music and modern sounds. Due to Ure's voice it was possible for Ultravox to explore rhythms and sounds other bands could never acheive. IMO, the finest male singer in our generation and not many people know of him.

You will hear rhythms coming onto the track and leaving only to return once again similar to Mike Oldfield's style. I strongly believe this was the future of music but was abandoned by american producers for the Mickey Mouse Club dancers. They didn't have anything else as grunge died away.

Where will music go? Stay with hip-hop? Not likely. It will seek out where it left off and continue onward. It will find Ultravox's sound just as the reader is doing. If you like New Order, or DePeche Mode you will like Ultravox. They are fingers on the same hand. Seperate and different yet coherently attached to one another. This band is a very strong recommend for true music lovers."

"This being the fourth from the amazing new wave band Ultravox is a great new wave/synth pop/pop album. They scored three hits with the tracks 'Lament', 'One Small Day' & 'Dancing With Tears In My Eyes'. I love the sounds selected on this album and this is quite important for electronic music as picking the wrong sound can ruin an otherwise excellent song. This is an album not to be missed. I highly recommend it and easily give it 5 out of 5 stars."
