Songs of Faith and Devotion

Depeche Mode

A heavy, grit-stained collision of industrial electronics, gospel fervor, and grunge-era guitars. The sound of a band falling apart and finding God in the wreckage.

March 22, 1993 · Star

A heavy, sweat-soaked struggle between spiritual salvation and physical addiction.

Moments Worth Listening For
The massive, distorted drum fill that kicks off the chorus of Walking in My Shoes.
Dave Gahan's voice cracking with raw soul over the gospel backing of Condemnation.
The claustrophobic, swelling wall of feedback and synths in the final minute of In Your Room.
