Title: buy the precious single instead
Review: There is just one good track on this album, and it is Precious, which is a new depeche mode classic in the vein of Enjoy the Silence. But even this standout is nearly sunk by an absurd lyric about silver wings. The Depeche Mode rhyming scheme, once so charming, has kind of worn out its welcome.Most of these songs are tuneless. The striving gospel numbers seem forced. The lyrics are laughable pop-psychobabble. The overfiltered and dirtied vocals don't suit the songs half of the time. Not nearly as good as Exciter, which had several good tracks.
