Great to speak to Andy McCluskey from OMD (Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark). Andy talked about the new album, ENGLISH ELECTRIC which is out on the 8th April plus we heard METROLAND, the brilliant new single, which is released on the 25th March.
Its 35 years since OMD got together and still sounding as innoative as ever.
Andy talked about songwriting, touring, how the band met, working with Kraftwerk member Karl Bartos on the track HELEN of TROY and much more.
I checked out the video for DECIMAL (one of three interlude tracks on the album), THE VIDEO is directed by Henning Lederer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZBNx6e3D_Q its excellent.
