At the core of Ultravox's sound is their masterful use of the synthesizer, fleshed out across emotive pop, epic rock, and yelping Krautrock experimentalism. You can hear the tension between Midge Ure's crystalline vocals and the band's melodramatic flourishes in CHVRCHES' bittersweet, goth-hued pop, while Spandau Ballet's twitchy synths and art-pop pomp call to mind Ultravox's atmospheric keys and New Wave weirdness.
