==Musical style== The tone of Ant's debut solo album, ''Friend or Foe'', was defined as glitzy glam pop with "tongue-in-cheek tunes, delivered with an excess of flair and good humour". It was also described as being "one of Ant's best records and one of the best new wave albums".<ref name="Friend or Foe">{{cite web|access-date=3 March 2009|url={{AllMusic|class=album|id=r749|pure_url=yes}}|website=AllMusic|title=Friend or Foe: Overview}}</ref> In a review for ''Strip'', the songs were considered to contain a "mixture of driving, danceable rock with humour".<ref name="Strip">{{cite web|access-date=3 March 2009|url={{AllMusic|class=album|id=r750|pure_url=yes}}|title= Strip review |website=AllMusic}}</ref> The music on ''Vive Le Rock'' has been said to be a "50s-style rock & roll sound".<ref name="Vive Le Rock">{{cite web|access-date=3 March 2009|url={{AllMusic|class=album|id=r28706|pure_url=yes}}|title=Vive Le Rock review |website= AllMusic}}</ref> The fourth studio album, ''Manners and Physique'', was said to be a combination of "contemporary dance tracks" and Ant's "old flair for mockery".<ref name="Manners and Physique">{{cite web|access-date=3 March 2009|url={{AllMusic|class=album|id=r751|pure_url=yes}}|title=Manners & Physique review |website=AllMusic }}</ref> Ant himself later said that the album was styled after the bass-heavy [[Minneapolis sound]] of which [[André Cymone]], in Ant's words, was "one of the architects".<ref>Antbook, packaged with Antbox, Sony Records 2000</ref>
