This song comes across my Pandora feed, and some girl says that she didn't know I liked Depeche Mode. I said that I didn't know that it was them, but I liked the song.
I always thought of it as 80s chick music, but this song was good. Like, western movie good, like some cowboy comes back to his cabin and finds his wife and kids murdered by outlaws, and this music plays while he's ridin' range, chasing down the bad guys, and blowing their guts out with his .44-40. So, here's the song. It's an acoustic remix of the original.  Depeche Mode - Dream On [Dave Clarke Acoustic Version] URL for the embed challenged. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4Jh0CPKwoE Sounds like some cowboy music, right? So then I check out the original version. Yep chick music. 
 Depeche Mode - Dream On (Official Video) Again, for the embed challenged, Earl sends his regards. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dgrMSTalZ0 So, are they just shitty 80's music? Are they only worth listening to when someone fixes their shit by redoing or remixing it? Is there anything of their original shit worth listening to? |

Ok, a couple of you like them. But does that first version sound like some good western movie background music?
And if they have some good stuff that I missed, what is it? |

When I wasn't banging my head, I was listening to them and other bands of that era like Killing Joke, The Sisters of Mercy, and the like.
You can take the man out of the 80s. but you'll never get the 80s out of the man... |

Their earlier stuff was the more inspired imo. Their style had to evolve and they followed the same diluted sound path that most seminal artists seem to follow. Just not a fan of later material in almost any artist. Kind of a death throws searching for relevance sort of thing. The irony is this period is when they have their greatest commercial success.

 Depeche Mode - Sister Of Night  DEPECHE MODE - THE LOVE THIEVES Although I agree that their earlier stuff is better, there is something about 1997's 'Ultra' that is special to me. The band members were in the depths of some pretty fucked-up addictions and other personal problems, and yet, they pulled off an incredible album. |

Love depeche mode.
That first song sounds western cause it's acoustic. Depeche mode is a synth/electronic band. So it sounds wrong. Listen to the violator album, that's depeche mode |

Ever heard "New Dress", "People Are People", "Black Celebration", "Pipeline" among others? If I cared about politics I'd stop listening to Rage Against the Machine. Ministry, Meat Beat Manifesto, Killing Joke, Megadeth, Anthrax, The Doors, Buffalo Springfield and pretty much every other musician and singer that EVER existed, |

Is this the song playing in your head while you fantasize about being Jody and stealing your neighbors property? When I was running my Jody game, the songs would be more sexy. Maybe more like The Yeastie Girls or Lords of Acid. But yeah, the original song might be good for land grabbing. Did you think you were going to inflame me with that post? |

 Failed To Load Title Huge DM fan here. Already have their new album pre-ordered through Amazon and am eagerly awaiting the US tour dates. Exciter is probably one of the worst albums to judge them from, OP. As stated, Violator is really good. I am also partial to Songs of Faith and Devotion. Really, I love pretty much all of their albums, with the possible exception of A Broken Frame, which is the weakest - and they acknowledge as such. Exciter doesn't get as much playtime for me either, but more than ABF. |
