VIDEO: OMD – Metroland

• 14th Mar 2013

North West electro legends Orchestral Manouevres In The Dark (OMD) release ‘Metroland’ out March 25th on 100% Records, the first single from their forthcoming LP ‘English Electric’, released April 8th.

OMD’s Andy McCluskey says; “The song is inspired by the early 20th Century London Metropolitan Railway Line campaign slogan to “come and live in Metroland.” So many commuters moved from the smoky capital that the very rural idyll they sought was swamped by miles of mock Tudor suburb. The act of reaching for Utopia destroys it.”
