British synth pop champs OMD, abbreviation for Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark,
have been entertaining people since 1978. In 2006 they took a deserved 10-year hiatus. Ten years later, in 2006, they returned and never looked back.
They recorded/released 14 LPs thus far, with
Bauhaus Staircase from 2023 as their most
recent one.
They scored big hits with great gems such as Electricity, Messages,
Souvenir, Maid Of New Orleans and their biggest one, Enola Gay.
Last Saturday they played at Rock Zottegem Festival in Belgium.
It was a non-stop, effervescent best-of set causing euphoria all around.
TUTV was there.
Live in the dark
Synth pop bliss all night long
Shine on OMD
This one is for Chrissie Hynde who hates phones at her expensive concerts
