About

Oblivion is an album by the rock group Utopia, released in January 1984. The album represents a turning point for the band, stepping away from the stripped down sound of their 1982 self-titled album in favor of a fuller, more mainstream contemporary pop sound, a direction that would continue on POV, the band's final album that would be released the following year. This shift in sound is most noticeable due to an increased use of electronic drums and triggers by John "Willie" Wilcox. In addition, synthesizers and sequencer, common ingredients of Utopia's music dating back to their debut release, feature more heavily than usual across the album's runtime. Released by US-based independent label Passport Records in early 1984, the album generated moderate sale, peaking at #74 on the Billboard 200 in March 1984. .
