This 1982 Japanese reissue vinyl of Ultravox’s *Systems of Romance* captures a pivotal moment in the band’s evolution. Ultravox, formed in London in 1974 as Tiger Lily, played a key role in shaping the British new wave and synth-pop scenes. Although John Foxx had left the band by this album’s era, his influence on their early sound remained significant. The band’s later success, including seven UK top ten albums and the hit single "Vienna," came after Midge Ure joined as lead singer and guitarist. *Systems of Romance* blends electronic textures with rock and new wave elements, featuring tracks like "Slow Motion" and "Quiet Men" that highlight the band’s transition toward a more polished synth-driven style. This vinyl is graded Near Mint, indicating no visible flaws and flawless playback throughout.
