Andy McCluskey from Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark

 

DSCF2993 (3)

Great to talk with Andy McCluskey from OMD about their new album and main single of the same title. “The Punishment of Luxury”.

INTERVIEW 

 

With their 13th studio album ‘The Punishment Of Luxury’ out September
1st via 100% Records, synth-pop pioneers Orchestral Manoeuvres in the
Dark release new single and the title track impacting September 1st .

‘The Punishment of Luxury’ is written, recorded, produced and mixed
by OMD – Andy McCluskey and Paul Humphreys- pairing crushing
electro rhythms with characteristically serene melodies sounding
unapologetically electronic.

The track and album are named after an 1891 painting by the Italian
divisionist Giovanni Segantini that caught Andy’s eye. Andy explains,
“Most people in the western world are materially better off than their
predecessors ever were and yet we are unhappier. Now we have
many possessions that we don’t need because we’ve been persuaded
to buy. This is the punishment of luxury.”

Having played a triumphant sold out show at the Royal Albert Hall in
May last year, OMD head back out on the road again this autumn for
a string of must-see shows, including a show at The Roundhouse
November 13th .
