Born out of the cutting edge alternative club scene in Birmingham in 1978, Duran Duran's remarkable pop sensibilities and New Romantic artschool glamour set them apart to become the biggest band of the 1980s. Stylistically influenced by Roxy Music and David Bowie, and musically influenced by post-punk and disco, their manifesto boasted a new sound which would merge the Sex Pistols with Chic - distinctive innovative keyboard sounds, dirty and melodic rock guitar, funky disco rhythm & bass and futuristic lyrics all combined to make pop gems ('Girls On Film', 'Rio', 'Hungry Like the Wolf'), and searing ballads ('Save A Prayer', 'Ordinary World', 'Come Undone') which captured the songs' imagination along with their racy, groundbreaking videos.
