| | Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark |
 | | Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark or OMD were a Liverpool synth pop musical ensemble which recorded for Virgin Records. | | | Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark was one of the original "synth-duos," and easily one of the best. | | | Shame (title of another great OMD song.) The first two albums were scattershot, but combined neatly into the U.S. compilation titled OMD highlighted by "Messages," "Enola Gay," and "Electricity." Start here if you can. |

| | TrouserPress.com :: Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark |
| | O.M.D. is an American condensation of the band's first two British albums, including both catchy OMD standards, "Enola Gay" and "Electricity." Recommended. | | | That song was thankfully omitted from OMD's subsequent album, The Pacific Age, but so was anything that might have prevented the record from being tiresomely ponderous and self-important. | | | The album is simply ordinary and mediocre, a disappointment from a once-captivating band. |

| | OMD: album reviews and ratings |
| | Merging the electro-pop of Ultravox and the "robot-pop" of Kraftwerk with Bowie and Roxy Music glam, OMD produced a sparkling array of danceable synth-pop that owed as much to the craftsmanship of Lennon/McCartney songwriting as to New Romantic style and sensibility. | | | While many OMD fans of long-standing mourned the passing of the original group and the departure of Paul Humphreys, Sugar Tax was undeniably a very strong album indeed, eclipsing the group's previous couple of albums sales-wise and spawning two UK Top Ten hits and a couple of less successful chart singles." | | | Although the album concealed some fine pop songs, its lack of critical and commercial success was perhaps responsible for OMD taking a more conservative approach in the future. |

| | Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark CD |
| | Prior to ORCHESTRAL MANOEUVRES IN THE DARK, synthesizer-based pop was either austere and/or deliberately unpleasant such as Kraftwerk or Throbbing Gristle, or novelty music the likes of M's "Pop Muzik." This eponymous set was among the first by an almost entirely synthesizer-based band to focus on the creation of catchy, melodic pop songs. | | | Although later OMD albums were more assured and technically complex, this is one of their best | | | With songs like Electricity, Bunker Soldiers, and Red Flame / White Light, this would be the best OMD album. |

| | ORCHESTRAL MANOEUVRES IN THE DARK |
| | As I’ve said before, 1980 was an exciting time for new music, and OMD certainly generated their share of excitement with this energetic album. | | | Fans of John Foxx-era Ultravox or latter-day Kraftwerk should find Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark’s debut a source of enlightenment, though Architecture & Morality is the better album. | | | I’d perhaps placed this (and their next two records) on too high a pedestal, and was crushed to hear them pandering to the teenybopper market by mid-decade. |

| | Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark - Stand Above Me |
| | It's not a bad track as dance tracks go, but when I buy an OMD single I want it to contain OMD songs, not a ten-minute overindulgence by some remix producer I've never heard of. | | | Almost two years after their highly successful album Sugar Tax (and its associated brace of hit singles) Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark are back with a new single. | | | It's sounds unmistakably like an OMD track but that's not surprising since McCluskey's vocals are instantly recognisable. |

| | OMD's glistening run of top-flight singles and chart domination came to a temporary but dramatic halt with Dazzle Ships, the point where the band's pushing of boundaries reached their furthest limit. | | | McCluskey, Humphreys, and company couldn't take many listeners with them, though, and it's little surprise why -- a couple of moments aside, Dazzle Ships is pop of the most fragmented kind, a concept album released in an era that had nothing to do with such conceits. | | | Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark : Albums : Dazzle Ships : Silent Running : Reviews |

| | Spoilt Victorian Child - prime Dickensian empeethree akshun |
| | What a great LP and to start off the proceedings let's begin with this instrumental number that uses a recorded broadcast by a presenter from Radio Prague. | | | It's difficult to imagine a band nowadays taking such a risk as to follow up a multi-million selling LP with a collection of fractured futurist soundscapes, Eastern European radio broadcasts and robot noises. | | | So the story goes, the band were hoping people would take the record back to shops convinced it wasn't OMD! |

| | Their music generally falls in dark and light halves; Dazzle ends the dark, JC demarcates the light. | | | So it was in a diet that included (at its best) Duran Duran, Split Enz and Talking Heads that OMD slipped in a simple wonder, "Joan of Arc." Not that the video was so visually stunning, but that song! | | | They've never made an impression on me to equal their first, but their ear for a pleasant melody seldom fails them. |
