OMD) may forever be remembered simply for \u201cIf You Leave,\u201d their big U.S. hit from John Hughes\u2019 <i>Pretty in Pink<\/i> flick, the Liverpool-borne band has been anything but a flash in the pan. Inspired by both punk\u2019s rule-breaking ethos and the synthetic sound of Kraftwerk, bassist Andy McCluskey and keyboardist Paul Humphreys formed OMD in 1978 and became one of a vanguard of pioneering groups preferring synthesizers over guitars. Though it would take \u201cIf You Leave\u201d for them to break through in America, in their homeland the band had a string of hits that were equally catchy and innovative. McCluskey and Humphreys parted ways in 1991, with McCluskey continuing on under the OMD banner for three more albums, but the original line-up reunited in 2006 and has released three superb albums in the intervening years.<\/p>\n<p>With 2019 marking the 40th anniversary of the band\u2019s first single, \u201cElectricity\u201d (on the seminal Factory Records no less), the band has released <i>Souvenir<\/i>, a collection of all 40 of its singles\u2014including a new one, \u201cDon\u2019t Go\u201d\u2014available as a download, a three-LP vinyl boxset, or a five-CD, two-DVD collection. While the first two formats contain just the 40 singles, the last option adds in a CD\u2019s worth of unreleased tracks dating back to 1980, two live recordings (one from 2011 and one from 1983), and two DVDs, one of BBC television appearances and the other containing three live performances from the \u201880s.<\/p>\n<p>While there have been compilations of OMD\u2019s singles before, none have been this complete. Not only does this one include several of the singles released since the band\u2019s reformation, but also those from the \u201890s with and without Humphreys. As such there is no better composite snapshot of the band and its evolution from synth pioneers to New Wave pop stars and back again.<\/p>\n<p>Set in chronological order, <i>Souvenir<\/i> leads off with \u201cElectricity.\u201d Blending a propulsive bassline and a twinkling synth refrain, it is a slice of analog pop bliss and one of the greatest tracks ever cut to wax. Other early singles like \u201cMessages\u201d and \u201cEnola Gay\u201d are a similar blend of criss-crossing synths and pulsating rhythms that sound at once of another time and from some point in the not-so-distant future. Meanwhile, the title track, \u201cSouvenir,\u201d is completely mesmerizing. With a melting keyboard melody and Humphrey\u2019s wistful vocals, it is a bittersweet lament that defies the idea of electronic music being soulless.<\/p>\n<p>The singles, \u201cGenetic Engineering\u201d and \u201cTelegraph\u201d from <i>Dazzle Ships<\/i>, OMD\u2019s fourth album, signaled a shift from the more minimalist aesthetics of the band\u2019s previous work. But the subsequent record, <i>Junk Culture<\/i>, and its first single \u201cLocomotion\u201d showed the band to be wading deeper into pop waters, with the results being mixed, even when singing about \u201cTesla Girls.\u201d The exception here is \u201cSo In Love,\u201d another successful swirl of vocalized yearning and twinkling synths.<\/p>\n<p>Then there is \u201cIf You Leave,\u201d which managed the neat trick of bringing OMD their greatest commercial success without sacrificing artistic value. While both qualities would wain in the coming years, even the band\u2019s singles from the \u201890s aren\u2019t completely without merit. Even those without Humphreys\u2014\u201cWalking on the Milky Way,\u201d in particular\u2014are worth a listen. That said, OMD\u2019s return earlier this century was also something of a return to form, and the three singles from <i>History of Modern<\/i> standout. Regrettably, though, none of the singles from the band\u2019s two other reunion albums, which are even better, made it onto the collection for some reason. That the band is still at the top of its game is proven by \u201cDon\u2019t Go,\u201d the new track which recalls its early beginnings while still sounding completely modern. It\u2019s a fitting culmination to this encapsulation of a band who has, to our benefit, always made pop music as they dreamed it would sound in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While to mainstream audiences Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (a.k.a.
