THe new Depeche Mode album

I just saw the video for their "Wrong" song. Killer video! I will most likely pick up the abum later.

I've heard the new album and it's pretty good, better I think than the previous one.

I thought the last one was pretty good too, so I'm really looking forward to listening to it. Must be something in the water, because the last few releases by aging 80's alternative icons have been excellent. Morrissey's last album was great, and I liked the Cure's as well.

I love "Wrong"!

I liked both of those albums as well, but in Morrissey's case I don't think it was something in the water because he doesn't drink it. He exclusively lives off the bile produced by his liver.

LOL...that is funny. I'm a huge Mozhead, I must admit. I just saw him live last week in El Paso. Time has not been kind to his body, but he still has a great set of lungs. He puts on one hell of a show... must be those bile fumes!

I LOVED the last Cure album - really good!!!

I like their music, but haven't listen to an album from them. Any recomendations?

I love Depeche Mode, well starting with their second and third album, and judging by this tune, 'Wrong' this album seems like a winner.

Did you mean the Cure or Depeche Mode?

With the Cure, my favorites are Head on the Door and Disintegration, and Depeche Mode would be Music for the Masses and Violator.

I meant Depeche Mode, but I am also a Cure fan, sorry for the confusion bro.

Cool beans! Yes, definitely check out Music for the Masses or Violator. Actually, now that I think about it, you might want to start with 101. It is one of my favorite live albums of all-tiem... it is odd, of course, that such a synth driven band would produde a memorable live album, but somehow the noise of the crowd really adds to their music. Good stuff!

The Cure 8/10
Depeche Mode 10/10
New Order 9.5/10
Erasure 8.5/10
Dead Or Alive 9/10

I have 'Violator' and few others, and I always thought '101' was a comp album I didnot realize it was a concert album, thanks for setting me straight on that one. I love their music but I always figured this type of music might not translate well live, and I am now curious check out '101' Cd.

101 has been treated as a comp album by most for years and even though it's live I think it does work pretty well as an intro to the band for most people. It's probably one of the few instances I can think of where I recommend a live album as an intro for people.

101 is an awesome live DM album set! 10/10
