Systems of Romance, released on 8 September 1978, is the third album by British new wave band Ultravox (an exclamation mark having been dropped from the moniker earlier in the year). It was the final recording for the group with original lead singer, lyricist and co-composer John Foxx, and their first album without guitarist Stevie Shears, who had left the band. Shears was replaced by Robin Simon, making his first and only appearance on an Ultravox album

Ultravox - Systems Of Romance (1978).

With 1978's Systems of Romance, Ultravox left punk behind and single-handedly blueprinted the entire new romantic movement to come - well, with a little help from co-producers Conny Planck and Dave Hutchins. Gone was the brittleness of Ha!-Ha!-Ha!, replaced by a rich lushness of sound that would define the forthcoming genre. Shifting from the political to the interpersonal, gone too was the overwhelming sense of looming Armageddon, replaced by more generalized (and mundane) feelings of alienation, "Dislocation," and unease.

An album with a glimpse on what could have been, had not John Foxx left the band. So there are the gems of "Slow motion" with its majesty and deep bass, "Quiet men" with a sparsely and perfectly supported melody, the dark but still very original "Dislocation" with its synthesizers, and the eerily disrupted ballad "Just for a moment". The rest are songs like from the first, much more punky album ("Some of them", "Maximum acceleration", "When you walk through me") and those who lie between punk and dark electronica. I still wish they had followed the path they opened with this album and not the path that started with "Vienna" to more commercial success.
