OMD’s already remarkable run of singles and albums reached an astonishing high point with Architecture & Morality, their knack for fusing their Kraftwerk and related obsessions with a perfect ear for almost glam-rock levels of earworm catchiness resulting in a true classic of its time. Paul Humphreys had one of his rarer lead vocal turns on a beautiful ballad, the sparkling “Souvenir,” while Andy McCluskey’s paired singles, “Joan of Arc” and “Maid of Orleans,” were almost majestically powerful, the latter especially due to Malcolm Holmes’s strong drumming.
