How do OMD albums make us feel? Welcome to this enlightening episode of Surprise Cast, hosted by W and Oregon native Chris Gilliland (This Wreckage). Together, we delve into the world of OMD (Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark), a Liverpudlian band that has profoundly impacted our lives through their distinctive blend of synth-pop and new wave. In this episode, we share our personal experiences and insights on three of OMD's albums: 'The Pacific Age', 'Sugar Tax', and 'Liberator'.
We explore the albums' experimental nature, their dynamic soundscapes, and the memories tied to OMD’s evolving music presence in our own lives. Candidly, we discuss the hits and minor misses per album.
Finally, we share recommendations of music and complementary music podcast channels. The episode not only celebrates OMD’s influential legacy but also entices the podcast listeners to explore related musical landscapes. Tune in as we honor OMD’s role in shaping our musical tastes and personal histories. Enjoy our podcast souvenir! Follow This Wreckage: https://chris-thiswreckage.blogspot.com/
