OMD - JUNK CULTURE (released April 1984)

40th Anniversary / 40 years on the CLASSIC 1980's ALBUM REVIEW and reappraisal.

Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (OMD) are an English electronic band formed on the Wirral, Merseyside, in 1978. The group consists of founding duo and principal songwriters Andy McCluskey (vocals, bass guitar) and Paul Humphreys (keyboards, vocals), along with Martin Cooper (keyboards, saxophone) and Stuart Kershaw (drums). Regarded as pioneers of electronic music, OMD combined an experimental, minimalist ethos with pop sensibilities, becoming key figures in the emergence of synth-pop; McCluskey and Humphreys also introduced the "synth duo" format to British popular music. In the United States, the band were an early presence in the MTV-driven Second British Invasion.

MEMBERS:
Andy McCluskey – vocals, bass guitar, keyboards, guitar
Paul Humphreys – keyboards, vocais
