Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark — Organisation

Sophomore effort of the band from the Merseyside area of the UK. The opening track (and only single) takes its name from the plane that dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima, Japan. The song title “VCLXI” came from a valve depicted on the back cover of the 1975 Kraftwerk album “Radio-activity”. The album title is a reference to the band “Organisation”, which would develop into Kraftwerk.
