Listen: OMD, ‘Isotype’ — classic-sounding new single off ‘The Punishment of Luxury’

Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark today premiered the first official single off their upcoming album The Punishment of Luxurya soaring, classic-sounding single called “Isotype” that will be released digitally tomorrow and will be issued on 12-inch vinyl as well.

The new album — the group’s first record since 2013’s English Electric — is due out Sept. 1 via White Noise Records. The group had teased the record with the track “La Mitrailleuse,” but “Isotype” is the first proper single. Pre-orders are now up through OMD’s site for the album and single.

Hear it below.

  1. Great track as usual!!

  4. Carlos Parra

    Very Kraftwerk (wich is always good) and, in a way, radio-friendly. I hope get high on charts! Good single!

  5. Pinaholic

    Kraftwerk in the dark

  6. Robert Ahlquist

    Great track, classic OMD with heavy Kraftwerk influences. I also hear Billy Currie’s ARP Odyssey-soul in the bright lead synths.

  7. CD single please (or are they waiting to round up all their vinyl-only B-sides on a CD EP again…?)
