With the second album "A Broken Frame" interpret Depeche Mode already with some pieces of how much potential the band and especially has Martin Gore as a songwriter. With "See you" and "Leave in Silence" the work already contains two absolute classics of the band history the run with me even today regularly for over twenty years. Besides these two classics know mainly still "The Sun & The Rainfall", the single "The Meaning of Love" and to convince the instrumental "Nothimg to fear". I compared to the albums from "Some Great Reward", there are also on this yet titles such as "Satellite" or "Monument" with which I can start anything and the person are just filler for me. Despite all this can be here on this album already imagine how much potential in the band and what is especially fascinated that one has coped the departure of songwriter without problems and even high yet risen. All in all a much gereifteres album than the unimpressive debut "Speak & Spell". With "A Broken Frame" indicates the band already at you is on the right track.
