Depeche Mode's "Violator" (1990): Track by Track!

Depeche Mode's

Depeche Mode was a band that had been building an audience all through out the 1980s but they blew the roof off with the release of 1990's "Violator". Using clever marketing campaigns (personal ads for your own Personal Jesus), a change in style, and some head scratching music videos, they created some of the best songs of the decade. Join us as we go track by track through this incredible album and compare it to The Cure's "Disintegration" album. All you ever wanted, all you ever needed, is here...in this podcast!
