(Videos to follow soon!) Strange enough the searing headache I carried the whole day today Friday only pestered me right after the Simple Minds concert featuring OMD (Orchestral Maneuvers in the Dark), all eighties flick, last night.

But Kno, Deacon the Villain, and Natti have long put to bed any question of their legitimacy, having toured all over the world, packing clubs, selling shit-tons of merch, and building a legion of devotees. Plus, they're part of the talent-deep QN5 family, one...

If Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (OMD for short!) suddenly began producing their ethereal brand of 80's pop music again, I would hope for it to sound as beautiful as I WON'T KNEEL which features SaintSaviour .
