« Nails, Xibalba & Early Graves on tour in Northeast, including NYC at Saint Vitus (dates) | Teith releasing 'Humboldt Park' (stream it) »
Posted in music | tour dates on January 28, 2013

As mentioned, synthpop veterans OMD are releasing English Electric on April 9. That's the cover art above which is definitely giving off some Architecture & Morality / Dazzle Ships vibes.
The band will visit North America this spring for a West Coast tour that includes both Sundays of Coachella 2013. They will then be back this summer to hit the rest of the continent, including a stop in NYC at Terminal 5 on July 17. Tickets to that show go on sale Friday (2/1) at noon. All tour dates and the video for new track "Decimal" are below.

Brooklyn Vegan's love affair with one of the more non-descript and forgettable bands from the 80's-era continues...

424 I was going to say the same thing. Before they turned into a pop act they were one of the best and most original and important new wave/synth pop bands around. I saw them a couple of times in the early 80's and they were great. I agree about T5. I don't know if I can go back there. The sound just plain sucks there. I've seen around 15 shows there over the years. Maybe 3 of them sounded really good.

418, too cool for school, eh? Enjoy your obscure Finnish indie music (who I know are "so amazing") that nobody cares about.
