Whereas rock video was originally a means of enhancing the music, the Fixx have turned the equation around. With vaguely foreboding bad-dream imagery drifting through every song, Reach the Beach seems more a series of treatments for MTV than anything else.Like many British synth bands, the Fixx have managed to parlay a lightweight microchip-pop sensibility into a chart-topping formula, complementing the yearning vagaries of their music with a dollop of existential angst in the lyrics...

As with most Anglodisco, this record's success isn't totally bewildering--it assembles an acceptable complement of catchy secondhand riffs and beats. Only I suspect that what sells it is the very thing that makes me hope I never hear those riffs and beats again--Cy Curnin's agonized can-this-be-adulthood? vocal style, influenced by everyone from Bryan Ferry to Lou Gramm but oh so much more doubt-ridden than any old fart.

The Fixx attempted to redefine themselves as a guitar-driven mainstream rock band for 1988's Calm Animals, their first album for RCA Records. Although their stylistic revamping isn't embarrassing, it isn't executed well, particularly because the group has failed to write any memorable songs. Consequently, Calm Animals produced no hits, and the group left RCA after releasing this lone album.

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...

For 20-something years, the Fixx have always been misunderstood. During the band's well-deserved brush with fame in the '80s, the band were often labeled 'synth pop', even though the main elements of the band's sound have always been Cy Curnin's emotive voice, and Jamie West-Oram's distinctive guitar. Rupert Greenall's keyboards have added atmosphere and feeling to the band's sound, but the Fixx are not (and have never been) a synth pop band...

The Fixx had a banner year in 1983, as their second album, Reach the Beach, broke down doors and gave the band a huge hit with "One Thing Leads to Another." Phantoms wasn't as good, not just because Reach the Beach had that hit but also because it was simply a really good mainstream new wave record. Phantoms was a little more serious, a little more lugubrious, a little directionless, but it still is a pretty good record, all the same. The reason why? The Fixx were a good band...

For their comeback effort, Elemental -- released seven years after their final album, Ink -- the Fixx trimmed back their dance influences and returned to the punchy new wave sound that brought them to the top of the charts with Reach the Beach. Of course, new wave had passed into the history books years before Elemental was recorded, and the group was showing signs of age in 1998, but the album sounded surprisingly fresh...
