yep that's DM's Dave... and "I Need You" is his latest single from his solo album

 

[U2DeathBear]

i haven't heard of any mention of Exiter. I actually like the album, yet the people i know slam it. granted, it is darker, but the mood to the album is simply divine.

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

Exciter, eh.... Not their best work.

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

i am actually selling exciter because it is a cd that an ex bf gave me.

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

Only one of my exes ever gave me a cd. I think it was Roxy Music.

 

[Bunbury]

Exciter was a disappointment. I think it was one their weakest albums since their early days.
It is apparent that Alan Wilder's influence is out of the picture in Exciter. It's too minimalist.
Anyways, hopefully the next album will be better (if there is a next album)

The only songs I like on Exciter are The Dead of Night and I Feel Loved, and even those could be improved on. Alan Wilder was the only 'proper' musician in DM. And from what I've seen played most of the keyboards when on tour. Ultra is better than Exciter. Dave Gahan's album is pretty good, so I think he'll want to have more input into the writing of the next DM album. Without Dave Gahan DM couldn't continue.

Totally agree
I do think Dream On was a proper single. Ultra was a way much better album.

Looove Depeche Mode, and they're amazing in concert!

I wouldn't say I'm a very big DM fan but I do enjoy them. After seeing Dave Gahan do some solo with incredible energy I can just imagine what the full band is like live. My favourites are "Home", "In Your Room", and "Policy of Truth". I'm sure there are others I really enjoy but that's all that's happening to remain in my memory atm.

Depeche mode is my most favoritist band 2nd to U2. i love depeche so much. Seen dave back in august. great! went to 2003 LA convention. seen dave on the big screen. I'm still a new fan.

Exciter was my 1st DM album so naturally i love it. but my favorite is probably black celebration followed by SOFAD.

DAVE GAHAN

oh oh, trouble in paradise??

 

[zooperson]

i have been listening to depeche more than u2 latley but don't tell anyone. but seriously it's just a breath of fresh air to hold me off till the new album. when ever that is.

 

[Skwege]

Violator seems to be a popular favorite amongst fans. I can understand why. However I find Music For The Masses and Songs of Faith & Devotion to be far deeper and more artistically fulfilling.
Though I really hope that the band releases that "World Violation Tour" recording that just resurfaced.
