recently re-discovered 101 (on cassette, no less) and it sounds incredible! I really dig their older stuff. Especially the period where they stopped being all bubble-gummed out and got moody.

When I was younger, my parents used to play the shit out of Violator, so I'd always known and loved that album. But when I was in college, one of my roommates was a huge Depeche-head, and he turned me on to the rest of their catalog. Since then, they've become one of my favorite bands of all time. I dig pretty much their entire catalog, but my favorite period would probably stretch from 'Black Celebration' through 'Exciter'. I think those are their best albums, probably with 'Violator', 'Ultra', Music For the Masses', and 'Faith and Devotion' being the best of the bunch.
I think that 'Ultra' and 'Exciter' are unfortunately underrated, 'Ultra' especially. The combination of jazz, synth pop, and grunge sounds really bizarre on paper, but actually comes together really beautifully.   Badass.I'm the first mammal to wear pants. | |

Amen. Everything about "Ultra" is perfection. It's one of their biggest stylistic risks and they totally pull it off. | |
