Ziggy Stardust is an epochal album and the supreme example of his eclecticism and creative skill, as well as his acumen in understanding before and better than others how to create characters of enormous impact. The figure of this alien rocker and his world on the brink of an apocalyptic end violently influenced the English scene of those years, captivating and deeply influencing the punk movement, especially due to the inherent idea of decadence and societal rejection.
