Re: Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark

2005-12-31 by mellotrongirl

The big Mellotron track for me was "The Dead Girls" from 1986's The 
Pacific Age. That one is scarey and thick with Mellotron. Strange--I 
never think of Orchestral Manouevres In The Dark as a *Mellotron* band 
per se, but associate them a bit more for the Kissing The Pink/Visage 
crowd using some darned interesting keyboards along the way. To hear 
them attempt Architecture & Morality would be worth a long drive off 
the snowy high chapparal through to the nearest city on their tour to 
see. I hope they will attempt Dazzle Ships as well.
