  This article was automatically translated by AI.

The album consists of twelve new songs that revolve around technology, the universe, and love. Musically, "English Electric" features confident synthpop, electro ballads, and modern club sounds, showcasing the British cult formation Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark in top form on the follow-up to "History of Modern" (2010).

Andy McCluskey on the artwork: "It fits perfectly that the cover of 'English Electric' is a contemporary distillation of traditional warning signals."

Peter Saville explains: "'English Electric' can best be imagined as brutally simple, dynamic energy... Since OMD wanted a design that should be as minimal as possible, the cover hints at the high voltage of an industrial legend – but can hardly compress it into a format."

"English Electric" will be released on April 5 in various formats:

● Standard CD in jewel case

● Deluxe edition in limited edition. Media book with CD, bonus DVD including studio interview with Andy and Paul, three animation videos by Henning M. Lederer, and unpublished photographs from the tour

● Vinyl album in limited edition. Die-cut cardboard with heavy vinyl including album on CD

● Box set in the ultimate collector's format in limited edition, signed by Andy and Paul on an English Electric authenticity certificate. Tin packaging with embossed OMD logo and artwork print includes exclusive 7" with unpublished B-side, 16-page text booklet, DVD, demo CD, album CD, three artwork prints, and a photo of Andy and Paul. Pre-orders via the website will additionally receive two nameplates made of metal enamel.
