They are back ...

What many no longer have expected happened: Depeche Mode are back with a new album. Of course, a lot of expectations were put into this album and some people of the "old fans" might be a bit disappointed. I for one love EXCITER. Okay, well, I had to take comparisons with earlier masterpieces and see it as something new. But who succeed, who will close the album into the heart. Very nice song with Depeche Mode surprisingly positive background, and a voice of Dave Gahan and Martin Gore, who was never heard. These partially minimalist sound effects that can easily float the songs in the room. Quite different, such as "Songs of Faith and Davotion" but still recognizable as typical Depeche Mode with a beautiful, rather quiet mood. An album to listen to and enjoy.
To retest itself I particularly recommend Shine (goosebumps mood), on you (for gliding) and When the Body Speaks than perhaps most tender ballad that Depeche Mode have ever produced.
