Review by Justin Martin

Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (OMD) is a British synth-pop band that has been around since the late 1970s. They gained popularity in the 1980s with hits like "Enola Gay" and "Souvenir." Their album Live at St Austell Coliseum 1981 captures the essence of their live performances during this era.

The album features 12 tracks, including some of their most popular songs like "Messages," "Electricity," and "Maid of Orleans." The live recordings showcase the raw energy and talent of the band, with Andy McCluskey's distinctive vocals and Paul Humphreys' keyboard skills at the forefront.

The sound quality of the album is excellent, with each instrument and vocal clear and distinct. The crowd noise adds to the atmosphere, giving the listener a sense of being at the concert. The band's performance is flawless, with tight instrumentation and impressive vocals.

One of the highlights of the album is the extended version of "Enola Gay," which showcases the band's ability to improvise and experiment with their music. The album also includes a cover of "The More I See You," which adds a touch of nostalgia to the setlist.

English electronic band formed in Wirral, Merseyside, in 1978 with Paul Humphreys (synthesizers) and Andy McCluskey (vocals and bass guitar). Earlier incarnations of their band included 'VCL XI' and 'Hitlerz Underpantz'. They played their first gig in 1978 at Eric's (Liverpool), then had a run of UK chart hits after swapping labels from Factory to the Virgin owned label DinDisc starting with the 1980 release 'Messages'. In 1980, drummer Malcolm Holmes and Dave Hughes on synths transitioned from guest/live musicians to be full members of the band. Hughes left 1980 and was replaced by Martin Cooper. Humphreys left the group in 1989, but McCluskey made a comeback in 1991 with the UK top 5 'Sailing On The Seven Seas', and followed that up with a UK top 3 Album 'Sugar Tax' before finally calling it a day in 1996. In 2007 they toured together again featuring the classic line-up of Andy McCluskey, Paul Humphreys, Malcolm Holmes and Martin Cooper and released a live-album in 2008: 'OMD Live: Architecture & Morality & More'. September 2010 saw the release of History Of Modern featuring the original classic line-up. This has been followed by English Electric (2013) & The Punishment of Luxury (2017) and OMD also performs live extensively.
