      I'm 16 and I like this. We didn't miss anything. We can still listen to this and lots of other albums like it, in fact we can listen a lot easier than people in 1980 could. If you mean that kids these days missed out on the 80s, that is true but people can't really control when they were born.

    'Vienna' is a masterpiece, every song on the album is incredibly well composed, played and produced, thanks to Conny Plank who produced this album with members of Ultravox. Midge Ure contributed a lot to the new sound after the departure of John Foxx. This is one of those albums that still sound fresh after 43 years.

    John Foxx left Ultravox! and created "Metamatic". Billy Currie recruited Midge Ure and created "Vienna". For me, two of the finest albums ever, and for fans of electronic rock music, I think that it was a Win Win.
    I saw Midge performing this album in its entirety at the Cambridge Corn Exchange in 2019. It was one of the most beautiful nights of my life 🧡

      @@michaellorenzen8200 Those first two Ultravox albums are monsters... post glam / punk / electronic. Hard edged. Killer lyrics... which Ure could never quite aspire to. However, I treat them as different versions of the same band name. Both are remarkable. But Foxx's incarnation is nothing short of stunning and I feel grossly under appreciated, whereas Ure's U-Vox got plenty of kudos!

    Fantastic band. For me, Japan and Ultravox were the real gems of this period - but were overshadowed by Duran, Spandau and the Ants. This album still had a good heavy slightly punk guitar feel to it - a lot less electronic than OMD and Human League. Perhaps they fell between the cracks of a number of genres.

      While The Ants had 8 top 20 hits and Adam 5
      Spandau had 15 top 20 hits and that's it.
      Admittedly the Ants and Adam and SB had several number ones.
      There isn't a lot in it.
      Japan were very much the least successful.

    I remember listening to a few song from Ultravox on WFNX in Lynn, MA USA in the mid 80's as an older teen. Cool stuff, but never bought the albums. 35+ years later, jumping around UA-cam I bumped into the "Return to Eden" vids and was blown away at the concert footage. I kept digging and found this gem tonight and I'm loving this album. Its never too late and I thank LowTech for this rip into the past. I just hope the next gens get to enjoy this stuff too.

    80's decade sign an absolute red line between the best and the worst about pop music...best: talking heads, ultravox, cult, cure, clash, car, stranglers, style council, simple minds, depeche mode, willy de ville, b52's, nxs, the smiths, human league, police, depeche mode, bob geldof and boomtown rats, alyson moyet...worst, a lot of garbage called "musicians" like
    duran duran, spandau ballet, tears for fears, george michael, heaven's seventeen, madonna, ricky martin, cock robin, cindy lauper, nick kershaw, phd, bronski beat, boy george and streetboys bands and many other trash....The choice was really simple....
