Out now is the previously unreleased Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (OMD) track “Liberator”, taken from the forthcoming “Souvenir” boxset.

“Liberator” was a song that Andy McCluskey had been trying to write for several years from the late 1980s to the mid 90s. It was actually intended as the title track to the 1993 album of the same name but never made it onto the album.

The inspiration for the song comes from Andy’s love of WWII aeroplanes. There were several demo versions recorded – the one released today is the nearest the song got to the intended sound says the band.

Here it is!

Since you’re here …

… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.

Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.

If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
