And when our worlds they fall apart

When the walls come tumbling in

Though bloc deserves it

It will be worth it

You realize the only thing that differs from me and you is that your name ends with b and mine ends with a c

Violator might be their best, but this is my favourite by spades

Preach. This and MftM are more or less tied for my fav.



The transition ~1:35 into Here Is the House floors me

I'm surprised by the lack of observations or interpretations of this so I guess I'll ask here, does anyone know why New Dress ends how Stripped begins?



I think how I interpret it is New Dress is a sort of extension of Stripped's themes. Where Gahan tells his lover "Let me see you make decisions without your television," he is extending the same sentiments to the listener who is seeing Princess Di hogging news broadcasts over actual world news

Sounds pretty legit but I was always satisfied to justify it as simply a cool "reprise" to end the record to be honest. Which doesn't actually satisfy me anyway since I refuse to see this without But Not Tonight as the closer haha

I think that's pretty much the case. I don't think they over-thought it too much, they were very liberal in their use of repeated sounds and riffs around this time. Two bonus tracks on this album, 'Breathing In Fumes' and 'Black Day' are just reworkings of Stripped and Black Celebration (respectively) and Breathing in Fumes, especially, remixes a load of Stripped samples, while Black Day is pretty much just Martin and a harmonica.

Today I learned this is one of Greg Mackintosh's "8 favourite goth albums".

Never looked into it that far.

All I know is that the car sound in the beginning of Stripped is a Porsche revving up and that's all I need to know
