While attending Newcastle University, Bryan Ferry had studied under prominent pop art painter and theorist, Richard Hamilton. Hamilton saw a painting as a mood board pinning his inspirations and goals "that could as easily clash as blend together", which were adapted by Ferry on For Your Pleasure, thematically taking him from the past and into his representation of the future. Hamilton's work Just what is it that makes today's homes so different, so appealing? got its mark on "In Every Dream Home a Heartache", a song about illusions, "glimpses of modern sophistication", and horrors behind them.
In the wake of the Four Your Pleasure sessions, Roxy Music sharpened their technique while touring their debut album. They lost some of the "freewheeling wildness", and in return gained a more concentrated, hearty and less experimental sound; the qualities especially yearned by Ferry. Bryan Ferry wrote the better part of the album within a two week writing spree during the 1973 winter, while "Grey Lagoons" and "For Your Pleasure" had already been conceived during the 1971 recording sessions, stockpiled for their debut album, and later developed for the release of their second album. In a way, Ferry was focused on writing a follow-up to the band's debut.
