About Ultravox
Ultravox were often associated with the UK’s early-’80s New Romantic movement thanks to their 1980 single “Vienna,” a swooning electro-pop song with heartbeat rhythms and melodramatic vocal flourishes.
But while the London band did have strong ties to that fashionable scene—frontman Midge Ure and keyboardist/violinist Billy Currie had also been bandmates in the influential synth-pop act Visage—they had much artsier and rougher roots.
Ultravox formed in 1974 under the name Tiger Lily with a different vocalist, John Foxx.
