The Punishment Of Luxury was Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark’s thirteenth studio album, but surprised everyone com- mercially with the first album since 1991 to reach the UK Top 10. The album continued the sound they created with 2013’s English Electric. A sound strongly tied to their roots, but this time a bit more stripped down. As Andy McCluskey describes it: “There’s a little bit more sort of crunchy industrial sound in a few things, a bit glitchty-er. But you know, the bottom line is that have a sense of melody that we just can’t throw off”.
Even after almost 40 years, the band are still able to surprise their fans, making The Punishment Of Luxury a must for all synthpop fans.
The Punishment of Luxury is available as a limited edition of 1000 copies on blue coloured vinyl. The record is housed in a jacket with die-cut and includes a printed innersleeve.
