HEVYDEVY FORUMS

Never really thought I would say this! I bought Songs of Faith and Devotion by Depeche Mode and I love it! It's got dark songs, epic bits, very well produced and is just awesome!

Anyone else like DM? If so, any recommendations for what DM album I should buy next?

Check it.

Yep, I'll own up. I've been a fan since the 80s... dark, brooding, melodic pop/electro. Very underrated by some, and adored by their fans.

I'd recommend the album Ultra for starters:

A couple of oldie but goldies from the album Violator:

The latter two are great, especially considering they're 17 years old.

I LOVE DM!

playing the angel just blew my mind

Hey, Hog... Glad to hear you have found something new!

I love the Violator and Ultra... you can't go wrong with them.

Happy listening.

(I think I spelled "Violator" wrong, but the hell with it)

I love DM!!








(Death Metal that is)

Violator, SOFAD and Ultra are all cant go wrong ones. not that i know all the albums though.


does anyone else call it Sofa-Devotion? my personal nickname.

I didn't pay much attention to them in past years, except for "People are People" (jiggy song), mainly because I lumped them in with bands like Icehouse and New Order...little too new-wavey for me. But I have to say, they've kind of grown on me.

great band, but i'll stick to some older release like violator and ultra

New Order, fair enough, but ICEHOUSE!?!

Shame on thee!

Haha... Hey, I'm "old". Old enough to remember seeing this live on tv...






and (wait for it) asking my mum if she would buy me this shirt.

Oh, the shame!

I'm old enough to know "Electric Blue". How's that? I can't say I ever bought any of their albums. I'm a Duranie, if you know what I mean.

hm i know what you mean.

let us just agree that we're mature instead of old!

Seasoned.
