Ultravox weren't always about sideburns that you could cut bread with and fin de siecle MTV videos that meant nothing to me frankly. Ultravox used to be really good! Check out Ha Ha Ha! their second album which came out on Island in October 1977 while John Foxx was still fronting the band.
It has a wreckless, maniacal edge. Incredibly of its time. The album mantains the bands devotion to Bowie and Roxy of their debut but sensibly attaches itself to Punk too. This is thrill a minute sliding down the bannisters on your rollerskates glee!
