Review title: 10 year old recording leaves much to be desired for DM fan.
Product review: I am an absolute, undeniable Depech Mode fan and it was with great excitement that I bought Martin Gore's solo CD. After all, Martin wrote the lyrics to almost all of Depeche Mode's work. So his solo work, uncompromised from working with three other band members, must be incredible! Right? Well, it was not to be. I was shocked upon opening the CD to learn that NONE of the songs were written by Martin Gore! NONE! The music is fine although very shallow compared to what you'd expect from one of Depeche Mode's founding members. Very basic instrumentation with seemingly no creativity, especially when you consider this work was done between Depeche Mode's "Music for the Masses" and "Violator." If you're a DM collector you'll probably want this odd piece but I can't recommend owning a copy for the music (even with my love for Depeche Mode).
