Album Notes & Community Reviews

Produced by George Martin, 'Quartet' refines Ultravox's majestic synth-pop sound into an immensely polished, grandiloquent pop-rock format. The pristine arrangements and cinematic lyrical themes further cemented the group's status as leading architects of the New Romantic era.
