HOW ROXY MUSIC DEFINED ART ROCK

Bursting into the denim-clad rock scene of 1972, their inspired amateurism and daring use of artifice within the pop medium presaged punk and post-punk, while the sartorial elegance of singer Ferry nodded towards the New Romantics in the 1980s. Even though they are somewhat thin on the ground these days, any "art rock" band who try to establish a certain aesthetic, in music, packaging and look, have the Roxy DNA in them somewhere down the line. Even the likes of disco legends Chic were influenced by them. So sit back and enjoy the Thrill of it All!
