[ music | Depeche Mode - Precious ]

I have it, and it's awesome.

This has an awesome sound, you can hear a lot of Violator influence in it again, and if you heard the "Enjoy the Silence 04" remix you can hear the influence from that too. It's a lot cleaner like Violator and less dirty/distorted like SOFAD and subsequent albums. Now, I LOVED SOFAD, Ultra was great, and Exciter was good, but neither lived up to SOFAD. It's good to hear the older sound back though. I can't wait for the full album.
