Rejecting the abrasive guitars of their punk-era contemporaries in favor of lushly romantic synthesizers,
Ultravox emerged as one of the primary influences on the British electro-pop movement of the early '80s.
Formed in London in 1974, the group -- originally dubbed Ultravox! -- was led by vocalist and keyboardist John Foxx,

With an initial lineup consisting of bassist Chris Cross, keyboardist/violinist Billy Currie, guitarist Steve Shears,
and drummer Warren Cann, their obvious affection for the glam rock sound of David Bowie and Roxy Music

signed the quintet anyway, with Brian Eno agreeing to produce the band's self-titled debut LP.
After scoring a minor U.K. hit with the single "My Sex,"...(AllMusic)
