After 40+ years of making a name for themselves, most would expect Depeche Mode to have dried out completely from their talent at this point in their careers. However on this album, it is exactly the opposite. The group continues to thrive in the genre that they pioneered in, while continuing to put their own twist on it and also create an oddly melancholic and dark musical experience. It's not only impressive, but also extremely satisfying and pleasant. |
