Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (OMD) return with The Punishment of Luxury, a masterful 2017 release that solidifies their status as pioneers of British electronic music. Founding members Andy McCluskey and Paul Humphreys continue the creative momentum sparked by their 2006 reformation, delivering an album that balances their signature synthpop sensibilities with provocative social and cultural criticism.
This Deluxe Edition media set features the full studio album alongside an exclusive DVD, offering fans a unique "stream of consciousness" look into the band’s creative process during recording. Musically, the duo explores "Kraftwerkian" influences with tracks characterized by electronic clarity and precision. From the driving four-to-the-floor beat of "Isotope" to the atmospheric "What Have We Done," the album is a testament to OMD's enduring relevance.
