I had a particular fondness for Depeche Mode's mid-90s comeback album, Ultra, which straddled the grudge wave but did its own gritty, electronica-infused thing. I knew a lot of their other stuff from the radio but I'd never heard anything like that before, where a group had managed to take an emerging trend and turn some of its stylings to their own ends, but leave the rest to make something new. What an incredible talent Fletcher was.

Same. Violator was my introduction to them. “Enjoy the Silence” has been my signature karaoke song for 20 years. I had such a crush on Dave Gahan.

 

I’ll have to revisit that. I didn’t keep up with them really after Gahan started spiraling in the ‘90s. (Actually stunning that he survived that era.)
