OMD (Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark) – Crush (40th Anniversary)

Marking four decades since its original release in June 1985, OMD proudly presents an expanded anniversary reissue of "Crush," their breakthrough album that cracked the U.S. market. Originally produced by Stephen Hague, Crush featured chart-making singles like “So In Love” and “Secret”, and became a landmark record for OMD in both the UK and the U.S., where it remains the band's only top-40 Billboard album.

This deluxe edition has been meticulously remastered from the original analogue tapes and expands the tracklist with previously unreleased tracks from the original multitrack recordings – newly mixed by co-founder Paul Humphreys. Included are four unreleased songs, demos, extended mixes, a remix, and a 12″ mix.

The package also includes an illustrated booklet with rare archival photos and insightful new liner notes by music journalist Jason Draper, based on recent interviews with Andy McCluskey.
