Music For The Masses - Depeche Mode (1987)

I only knew the big hits off this one, but it’s a solid album all the way through. DM would become a global force in the 90s, but this was the first step towards that.

Gothy industrial beats and spooky decoration, this would be a blueprint for a lot of bands in the coming years.

Tracks I Liked

Never Let Me Down Again - it might not.

Strangelove - could be on any random 80s sampler and with good reason.
