The band has gone through two significant phases of their career, the first as a five-piece with lead singer Music/JohnFoxx. They formed in 1974 as a GlamRock band under the name Tiger Lily before becoming [[ExcitedShowTitle Ultravox!]] in 1976 and releasing their self-titled debut in 1977, produced by Music/BrianEno and Steve Lillywhite. Their sound was closer to Music/RoxyMusic and Music/DavidBowie, but their follow-up ''Ha!-Ha!-Ha!'' later that year was aggressive PunkRock that incorporated synthesizers. They dropped the exclamation point from their name for their third album, ''Music/SystemsOfRomance'' - while none of their records took hold in the charts, ''Systems of Romance'' took the band in a more synth-driven, romantic direction that heavily influenced the burgeoning NewRomantic scene. Foxx left the band shortly after to pursue a moderately successful solo career, and guitarist Robin Simon left as well.

** Ure manages to bridge the gap between both Systems of Romance and Vienna brilliantly (such at this [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SySZ-NPtIAQ&ab_channel=M live recording]]), thus making Vienna sound pretty on-par with Systems of Romance (or anything from Foxx's solo era for that matter- just compare The Garden with [[Music/RageInEden Rage in Eden]]).

However, since the song itself is much more clearly about a less "family-friendly" type of nuclear holocaust (reactors don't tend to have precise meltdown times, the lyrics indicate that the singer knows to within seconds when the end will come), presumably to get a video that wouldn't be quite so traumatizing (and that in 1984 might even have been banned for that reason). If you lived in the UK in the eighties, you knew that if the Cold War went hot, pretty much anywhere in the country, except for a few very remote locations, you had four minutes at most, and the chances of actually surviving were almost nil.
