ORCHESTRAL MANOEUVRES IN THE DARK (OMD) is a Synth-Pop group whose founding members are originally from the Wirral Peninsula, England. OMD were originally assimilated in the greater new wave batch of synthesizer-based acts of the later 1970s and early 1980s. The group was founded in 1978 by Andy McCluskey and Paul Humphreys who remained, and were perceived as, the core members. Adding sidemen Malcolm Holmes and Martin Cooper by the end of 1980, this quartet (with occasional line-up fluctuations) was the live concert line-up until 1989, when Humphreys, Cooper and Holmes all left OMD to found THE LISTENING POOL. - Details

Each version carries the distinct, sonic hallmark of its creator. Furthermore, there’s a special radio version by Oscar Holter (NECRO FACILITY). Never before did COVENANT sound that pure, that clear!- Details
