Whaaat? Invented? More like creativity following acts like the Velvet Underground or Plastic Ono Band.
Roxy Music music is actually pretty slick, but I point out that there have been others before them in the business of art pop / avant garde.
Actually, if you examine their influences, it is more like evolution of a theme in arts and music.
- pocketsquare2 9y agoWell. Aren't Velvet Underground basically a Genghis Khan of 20th century western music, as in 95% of people who attended their shows started a band, and roughly 37% of contemporary bands carry their DNA? :) That said, baity title but the subtitle is better in terms of Roxy not really sounding like anyone before (or since). Also grateful that the universe allowed Bryan Ferry and Brian Eno to occupy the same space long enough to make choice music without collapsing into a singularity.

- boomboomsubban 9y agoThe article mentions the Velvet Underground early and often. Beyond that any arguments about music "genres" are silly. They're largely created by music critics to easily organize things, and critics as a rule disagree with each other.
