Construction Time Again

Depeche Mode

Metallic percussion and early sampling meet sharp social critique. A pivot from pure pop into the industrial-tinged shadows of the Berlin studio scene.

August 22, 1983 · Fan (8)

A sharp, industrial-edged exploration of societal decay and the search for meaning in a mechanical world.

Moments Worth Listening For
The rhythmic clanging of metal pipes that forms the backbone of Pipeline, sounding like a subterranean work song.
The melodic interplay between the bright synth hook and the cynical, biting lyrics of Everything Counts.
The sudden, haunting shift into the reprise of Everything Counts that closes the album with a ghostly choral echo.
