Description

Hugely influential and hailed by Q magazine as “the most popular electronic band the world has ever known”, Depeche Mode follow 25 incredibly successful years of sublime, superlative Electronica with their first ever Best Of collection. Brimming with 17 hit singles that span their incredible and varied career, this eagerly anticipated album also contains the brand new track ‘Martyr’. Singles include ‘Just Can’t Get Enough’, ‘Everything Counts’ ‘Personal Jesus’, ‘Enjoy The Silence’ and ‘Precious’. All tracks are taken from 11 of the band’s studio albums released between 1981 and 2006. One of the most influential groups over the last 25 years, Depeche Mode have inspired generations of new musicians while consolidating their considerable reputation. In the process they have sold over 72 million records and played to audiences in excess of 30 million throughout their remarkable 25-year career. They remain one of the most highly regarded and passionately supported groups in modern music. Mute. 2006.Amazon.co.ukBy their very nature, best-of collections lend themselves to nostalgia, and Depeche Mode’s instantly identifiable sound and string of pervasive, catchy singles are undoubtedly the soundtrack to many memories–memories served well by this fine collection of beautifully remastered songs. If you’ve heard any of the band’s double-disc rereleases, you’ll have an idea of just how good their remastered songs can sound. While there are some obvious omissions (“Somebody,” “Policy of Truth”), compiling a career-spanning collection of Depeche Mode’s best would be considered a challenge for just about anybody; and as this isVol. 1, it seems obvious that there’s more to come. There are a couple odd choices in the mix (“See You,” “New Life”) and the obligatory new track (“Martyr”), but the non-chronological mix makes these classics sound fresh and better than ever.–Alan Wiley
