Dont judge it on first listen...its got an insidious melody that worms its way into your brain and wont let go. Its classic pervy electro mode (it sounds almost Music For The Masses era DM).

Mr. Brian, I find that offensive.

I need to quit dicking around and finally get a 5.1 system for my home. Thank God Depeche Mode doesn't release every album like this.
Sorry kids you don't get to eat this week. Daddy just got the new Depeche Mode box set.

With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

When you buy your first 5.1 system, they also issue you your penis!

HAHAHAHAHAAH! Don't judge on first listen?!?!?!?!?
The very first bars had me 100%! This is classic in Songs of Faith and Devotion which I still think is NOT dated.
This song is an auspicious melody to the new album!!!!
Thanks for posting!
