In this episode of Five of the Best, we are joined by Ken Cheshire (X: @klcheshire) for a deep dive into the cinematic, electronic, and influential sound of Ultravox. Focusing exclusively on the Midge Ure-fronted era, we explore how this legendary four-piece transformed from post-punk roots into the architects of the 1980s synth-pop explosion. From the "electronic cathedral" grandeur of their George Martin-produced hit "Hymn," to the dark, cinematic mood of Vienna, we break down five standout tracks that define the band’s peak. We discuss the stories behind the music—including their struggle to afford basic stage outfits, the irony of their biggest chart hits, and their surprising final experiment with traditional Irish folk music. Join us as Ken shares his personal selections, revealing why these tracks remain essential listening for any fan of new wave, synth-pop, and atmospheric rock. Whether you are a long-time fan or discovering their "Film Noir" sound for the first time, this episode celebrates the enduring legacy of a band that was never afraid to push musical boundaries.
