Album Review
Reach the Beach is a significant step forward from the Fixx's debut album, Shuttered Room, simply because the band can now craft immediately accessible, incessantly catchy pop/rock melodies. "One Thing Leads to Another" has a big, ringing guitar hook hammered home by the dance beat, while "Saved by Zero" and "The Sign of Fire" are cool, robotic slices of synth pop. Although the rest of the album isn't quite as catchy as those three hits, Reach the Beach remains a pleasant collection of immaculately produced and stylishly danceable new wave. [The 2003 reissue includes four bonus tracks.]
Customer Reviews
A Classic
You have to listen to the whole album. It's well laid out. One of my favs.
Great album
This is probably, taken as a whole, The Fixx's finest work. Every song is at least good, and most are excellent. Fixx quirks are present; for example, Outside changes time signature from 4/4 to 3/4 and back again periodically.
