Siren is the fifth album by Euro-style English sextet Roxy Music. Released in 1975, the album — which completes the Jobson trilogy that also includes Stranded (1973) and Country Life (1974) — would be the band’s last before their initial split.
Continuing the trilogy’s romanticism of decadence and dissonance, the album is highlighted by the sinister lurch of “Sentimental Fool,” the cosmopolitan suave of “She Sells,” and the hotblooded iciness of “Both Ends Burning.” The libidinous nightclub pulse of “Love Is the Drug” became a transatlantic hit.
