John Foxx - Metamatic (1980)
In 1977, as a bare assed teenager - Ultravox changed my life. This was the great John Foxx years and those first three records changed my musical roadmap.
commentsJohn Foxx has been making brilliantly retro, analogue music since he fronted the first incantation of Ultravox back in the late 70’s.
I’ve been a fan since those days and while his music hasn’t evolved much - it hasn’t needed to.
This sounds more relevant and contempory now than it ever did. It’s stark, trance-like monotony is hypnotic. Welcome to the machine.
