The group will also perform many rarely played tracks taken from their debut album OMITD.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Following a short break, the remainder of the night will be dedicated to their much-loved hit singles taken from an impressive 13 album career, including the classic, &#8216;Enola Gay&#8217; to highlights from &#8216;Architecture And Morality&#8217;, and more recent hits &#8216;Don\u2019t Go&#8217;, and &#8216;Isotype&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A show that is truly not to be missed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The announcement follows on from OMD\u2019s 40th anniversary celebrations which included the release of the momentous \u2018Souvenir\u2019 anniversary box-set and greatest hits collection.The band also took to the road last year, with a critically acclaimed world tour in which Metro described the set as \u201can entire decade in 100 minutes, delivered with inspired enthusiasm\u201d, while The Guardian noted as \u201cModern technology and computer graphics mean OMD sound pristine and look far more futuristic than their wildest dreams in 1979.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">OMD have sold an astonishing 25 million singles and 15 million albums, which has established them as electronic synthesiser pioneers and one of Britain\u2019s best-loved pop groups.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It\u2019s four decades of Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark. Forty years of electric, eccentric and essential music.
