Depeche Mode - are they GREAT in your book or not?

~~MicShazam~~ · 01-01-2019, 03:57 PM

Black Celebration, Some Great Reward, Ultra, Exciter, Delta Machine, Spirit. All of those are among my favorites and it's hard to pick. Songs of Faith and Devotion is also good, but I need to listen to it more (it was one of the last DM albums I got my hands on).

Depeche Mode is amazing!
They were the first of their kind of music, they are so unique and dark and awesome!

My favorite album of theirs is Playing the Angel.

DM is pop?

OT: They're great, I think they've polished their sound a lot over the years and have evolved with the times.

They're certainly a synthpop band.

That's really tough, but after Violator; my D.M. lineup:
1. Violator
2. Music For the Masses
3. Songs of Faith and Devotion

Also, for D.M. fans, check out this band:
(I can't pull up all, b/c some are blocked/deleted in my Country, so I chose one song at random) - Also, Smithdude started a D.M. devoted thread.

Here's great collaboration with Alison Goldfrapp on Ocean from Goldfrapp's lp Silver Eye, Deluxe version. Their vocals alone, are gorgeous; together...ethereal:
