Ultravox – Vienna (Chrysalis, 2018 Remastered CD)

Experience the landmark album that defined the sound of the early 80s. Vienna marks the pivotal moment when Ultravox transitioned into the mainstream, fueled by the arrival of Midge Ure and the masterful production of Conny Plank. Balancing cold, futuristic electronics with "backbone and muscle" rock textures, this release remains a definitive work of synth-pop and new wave history.

This 2018 reissue features high-quality remastered audio, capturing the grandiosity and technical precision of the original sessions. Whether you are revisiting the moody, cinematic title track or the urgent, propulsive energy of the band’s breakthrough hits, this album stands as a testament to the band's creative evolution.

Key Tracks:

• "Vienna": The haunting, impressionistic title track featuring iconic violin swells and delicate piano layers.
• "Sleepwalk": The urgent, heat-seeking synth-pop classic that served as a signature introduction to the Ure-era.
• "Astradyne": A sprawling, seven-minute instrumental that perfectly bridges the gap between Krautrock roots and electronic rock polish.
• "New Europeans": A hungry, infectious anthem boasting the band’s signature blend of melody and atmosphere.
