Ultravox dropped the exclamation point in their name before releasing this, getting a little more serious and into their keyboards. Systems of Romance has got some synthesizers and cheap guitars and was recorded in 1978 as Kraftwerk reached punk. Interesting early new wave sounds for the time, but not a great listen anymore. Quiet Men is a quintessential British song about British men. I don’t know who I’d recommend this album to, if you are like me and would buy this record then I don’t really have anything fresh to say to you.
