Album Review

Abandoning the intoxicating blend of art rock and glam-pop that distinguished Stranded and Country Life, Roxy Music concentrates on Bryan Ferry's suave, charming crooner persona for the elegantly modern Siren. As the disco-fied opener "Love Is the Drug" makes clear, Roxy embraces dance and unabashed pop on Siren, weaving them into their sleek, arty sound. It does come at the expense of their artier inclinations, which is part of what distinguished Roxy, but the end result is captivating. Lacking the consistently amazing songs of its predecessor, Siren has a thematic consistency that works in its favor, and helps elevate its best songs — "Sentimental Fool," "Both Ends Burning," "Just Another High" — as well as the album itself into the realm of classics.

Customer Reviews

Love it

I bought this record when it first came out. I was just a young boy and was mainly exposed only to the garbage my older sister listened too at the time such as the Carpenters, Bobby Sherman, Osmond Brothers, Barry Manilow etc...
I can't exactly remember how I originally came to discover this record but, this record blew my mind. I had never heard music like this before. For many a day, I starred at the record cover too wishing the mermaid would get up off those rocks :) Every track is great but my two favorites are Just Another High and Both Ends Burning. Doesn't get much better.

The best album by one of the best groups ever

Okay, I'm from that era, but I still think this is a remarkable collection of excellent songs. That last of the early Roxy Music classics. My favorite is "Could It Happen To Me?", but the rest are all excellent, except, of course, the hit "Love Is The Drug." Meh.

BOTH ENDS BURNING

Yet another fantastic album from Roxy Music! This album is certainly not a let down. Best songs: Love Is The Drug, She Sells, and Both Ends Burning. I absolutely love this album. While it's not my favorite Roxy Music album (Country Life is probably my favourite), it's still a great one. Roxy Music never disappoints.

Evolving from the late-'60s art-rock movement, Roxy Music had a fascination with fashion, glamour, cinema, pop art, and the avant-garde, which separated the band from their contemporaries. Dressed in bizarre, stylish costumes, the group played a defiantly experimental variation of art rock which vacillated between avant-rock and sleek pop hooks. During the early '70s, the group was driven by the creative tension between Bryan Ferry and Brian Eno, who each pulled the band in separate directions: Ferry...
