I liked the lyrics to their new single 'Wrong', although my guess is that they probably selected a simple and catchy song to be the first single.
The music video was a bit creepy, especially towards the end, although the brief shot of the three members passing by (or standing there?) was nice.
(I just had a look of the video and blogged about it here...anyone want to take a shot at reading Japanese? )
I'll be looking forward to the entire album, nonetheless.
Ive always been a DM fan.
Back when i just cant get enough came out i was a snotty nosed ten year old bopping away to the specials at the local discotecha,having older cousins who were into them really got me on the DM case.
I remember my cuz getting a broken frame on vinyl and he played it constantly for about 6 months and he EVEN taped it for me!
Violator is without doubt one of my all time fave albums.
It took me quite a while to get into songs of faith,and some of the jesus influences did begin to get on my tits.
Hated ultra when it first came out,but barrel of a gun is nectar as boaty says.
i've got exciter somewhere,probably at the back of a cupboard somewhere!
I saw em on the songs of faith tour in 1993 and have to admit they were excellent live.
Did try getting tickets for the tour of the world but to no avail :\ohwell:
I recently sold all my DM tapes to a guy in Brazil for £100!
Got then all on cd tho

'Try walking in my shoes', ace, no doubt! 
and 'lillian', great electronic stomper
Yeah, we are that crazy. 
I was able to the watch the official vid posted on youtube just a few days ago, but now I get the 'this video is not available in your country' label. Then I tried clicking on the same vid that someone else (not DM's official page) uploaded and it said that I couldn't view it because of copyright claims.
:(
So, I finally saw the vid again on imeem, and adjusted the links in my blog.
Anyway, I pre-ordered my copy on amazon.co.jp, so I'm happy about that though.
I'm not much of a Depeche Mode fan... but it's not bad for them. Video is kinda kewl.
Typical shallow/vacuous DM moodiness as is their trademark, music is cool retro electro stuff with nice modern beats by whoever they paid alot to produce it. Trademark overdone vocalization as expected. They outta pay DFA to remix it.
So is the title trying to say we mostly DO care??? Or that we do care but don't want to admit it?
Nash, we need your grammatical expertise in this area to make this as clear as muddy water...

I addressed my grammar earlier on, just the general consensus of you lot is you don't care. I'm daft as they come.
Can't believe that Depeshit Mode are playing Glastonbury.
I'll have to find out time and date so I can avoide them

It's actually a blessing, Rock Am Ring was unbearable at times.
Depeche Mode have announced details of a short winter tour of the UK and Ireland.
The band, who release new album 'Sounds Of The Universe' on April 20, will play the UK and Ireland this December, following shows this summer.
The dates are:
Dublin O2 The Point (December 10) Glasgow SECC (12) Birmingham LG Arena (13) London O2 Arena (15) Manchester MEN Arena (18)
presales start tommorrow!

The video for wrong is great, although I think it could be even better if done by Sir Corbijn, but that's life. Really provoking and full of tension, as a 1st single from DM should be.
The track itself isn't that good, maybe a grower. Didn't liked the remixes, but then again it's a difficult tune to remix. Is it in the UK chart already?

nice, do you know what band will open that date, or which band will be supporting DM European tour??
Preda, you are very pro-Depeche... It's 2009, not like you're in 1986 sitting at the back of the classroom.

I supposed I'm having a "Black Celebration" there.
I managed to get the album (thankyou Soulseek) over the weekend, its not too bad after a few listens, the album is more synth orientated than previous albums.
Its nothing to write home about, but i think it will grow on me.
DM playing Glastonbury? That's new...
