Depeche Mode - Get the Balance Right
Even though Construction time again possesses the first electro-industrial experiments, it still falls within the synth-pop of the first two albums. This and Everything counts, however, announce my favorite phase, which spans from Some Great Reward to Black Celebration. Shortly after, I find more radio-friendly patterns, and even further on those grunge guitars with tracks like Mercy in you or Rush, which sound more like Alice in Chains than Depeche. AHAH
