Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark - Dazzle Ships (40th Anniversary Edition) [Blue & Silver 2LP]

Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark’s Dazzle Ships gets a stunning reissue for its 40th anniversary with this limited blue and silver double vinyl pressing.

This digitally remastered and expanded edition includes seven bonus tracks, complementing classics like the standout singles “Genetic Engineering” and “Telegraph.” Celebrated for its creativity and boundary-pushing sound, Dazzle Ships remains a cult favorite and a testament to OMD’s pioneering spirit. The special anniversary edition, pressed on eye-catching blue and silver vinyl, is a must-have for fans and collectors, offering a fresh perspective on one of the most daring albums of its era.
