The greatest band in the universe. And beyond.

After more than 20 years, I still enjoy their music with the same joy and amazement.

great music

Innovative, diverse-sounding, sophisticated. In their impressive 3-decade career, DM's sound has encompassed dark, industrial electro, plaintive torch songs, tinkly-bonk pop, bluesy rock, and intelligent dance music. Lyrically, songwriter Martin Gore is obsessed with obsession, offering a perfect blend of lust and religion, or perhaps lust-as-religion. DM moves the heart as well as the feet.

They are always innovative with their music, not afraid to try new genres and their songwriting is superb (Martin Gore is amazing!). Plus, Dave Gahan's vocals are one of the best out there!

Excellent songwriting, songs have the ability to stay in your head for days...in a good way. Excellent live band. Music has much more swagger now than in their earlier works.
Cons: Not the biggest fan of their last album. It did however translate well live.

Excellent live performances. Thier best albums were in the 90's. Good remixes if you look around.

The melodies are spare, but catch hold almost instantly. Early use of sampling-as-instrumentation gives them an interesting sound.
Cons: Weak live performances.

tryptonique recommended this 3 years ago

Depeche Mode is often labeled an "80's band," however, they released some of the best albums in the 1990's. Cases in point: Ultra and Songs of Faith and Devotion.
Cons: Their first three albums (pre-Some Great Reward) suck. The best are great until basically Sounds of The Universe (the last one). Still, they've had really only 2 major crap albums and the rest is tops
