Our Take

ULTRAVOX's "Quartet" is a kaleidoscope of synth-pop brilliance, a veritable feast for the ears that will leave you dancing like it's 1982 all over again. Frontman Midge Ure's vocals soar above the lush, pulsating electronic landscapes created by the band, transporting listeners to a world where shoulder pads and neon lights reign supreme.

The album kicks off with the infectious "Reap the Wild Wind", a high-energy anthem that sets the tone for the rest of the record. From there, tracks like "Hymn" and "Visions in Blue" showcase ULTRAVOX's ability to blend catchy hooks with introspective lyrics, creating a dynamic listening experience that is equal parts fun and thought-provoking.

But it's not all upbeat dancefloor fillers on "Quartet" – songs like "The Voice" and "Serenade" delve into darker, more atmospheric territory, adding depth and complexity to the album's overall sound. The result is a cohesive and well-rounded collection of songs that will have both longtime fans and newcomers alike hitting repeat.

So grab your synthesizer and hairspray, because ULTRAVOX's "Quartet" is a must-listen for anyone craving a dose of 80s nostalgia with a modern twist. It's a sonic journey that will leave you feeling like you've just stepped out of a time machine, and trust us, you won't want to come back.
