That way I could get an eye toward their evolution. I also listened to the next album once before I reviewed the previous. Some albums I listened to 10 times but none less than 4 times. Q: What was my listen and review process?Ī: I listened to each album multiple times in a row over the span of a month. It makes you want to go out and either fuck someone or punch them.Ī: Members: Vince Clark (1980-81), Dave Gahan (1980-Present), Martin Gore (1980-Present), Andrew Fletcher (1980-Present), Alan Wilder (1982-1995) Their music is gorgeous, and sad, and fun, and angry, and sexy, and progressive. Putting on headphones and just melting into the music changes me alters my moods like no other band does. I have named 2 plays and 13 issues of a graphic novel after their songs. No matter how creatively drained I am songs like “Alone” and “Memphisto” and “Rush” really get me going. They are the band I put on when I need inspiration to write. They have kept me driving around late at night when I couldn’t fathom turning off the tape deck – curfew be damned! They still make me late for work when I don’t want to turn off my iPod. I have so many memories attached to their songs. They were my first concert (Violator tour), the first albums I ever bought, and my first rockstar crushes. In fact they shaped who I was and am more than anything else in high school or college.
Electronic pioneers that have influenced bands like Nine Inch Nails, The Killers, Muse, Marilyn Manson and The Deftones among many others.
