Fucking classic album. Absolutely phenomenal, my favorite Depeche record, it's damn near flawless. It has a ridiculous dark and cool sonic quality to it.
The first Depeche Mode album I actually ever heard was "Ultra", but it got me into them enough to check out their older material, when I heard "Violator" that was it, I was officially a huge fan. |

moderatorMy first was Music for the Masses but I agree with you - Violator is a near-perfect album * * *

Black Celebration through Ultra is perfect Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener

Anyone dig the b-sides? or the bonus tracks from the 2006 remaster. Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener

A great album: love the b-sides as well. "Whitney was purely and simply one of a kind." ~ Clive Davis | |
