O.M.D. (Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark) are a British electronic band who became pioneers of synth-pop. Andy McCluskey and Paul Humphreys combined electronic experimentation with emotional songwriting to create enduring hits. Their catalog includes 'Enola Gay,' addressing the atomic bombing of Hiroshima with a deceptively catchy melody, 'Maid of Orleans,' 'Souvenir,' and the American hit 'If You Leave' from the 'Pretty in Pink' soundtrack. OMD's willingness to address serious subjects through accessible pop distinguished them from synth-pop contemporaries. Their influence on electronic music and their successful reunion demonstrated the lasting appeal of their intelligent approach to pop.
