Music For The Masses

Classic Depeche Mode with absolutely pristine sound quality! This vinyl reissue is superb and sounds far better than any other version I've found, e.g., CD or streaming. Bass and treble are well-balanced and compression is minimal. Very quiet surfaces. The packaging is exquisite as well, with a high-quality printed inner sleeve.

I recently got back into vinyl after more than a 25 years hiatus, having bought CDs primarily since the 90’s. Having worked in a record store in the late 80’s of course I picked up quite a bit of work. Problem was, most vinyl I was getting were 12”s, most everything was CD. This Depeche Mode MFTM on vinyl is outstanding, though not one of the original pressings. But the music is just as enjoyable, with exquisite clarity from high to low, and yet with that sound you only get with playing on a record player, distant from digital. I have all the 12” singles of DM of course, but now I can enjoy a full album with only have to flip the record once. One down, several more to go.

This item arrived ahead of schedule and in new condition. It was the perfect gift for one of my grandchildren! Thanks!

Excelente

I used to have all these singles back in the '80s. The artwork, printing and even the paper stock is exact. All the copyright info says "1987." You'd think these were direct from Mute Records. There were zero issues playing and all sound really clean even though "Little 15" was slightly warped for some reason. The bass on "Behind the Wheel" and "Strange Love" is nice and deep. If you told me these were from the original masters, I'd believe it. They don't sound like they came from CD copies. I didn't realize it came with a digital download as well - so bonus! Very, very happy with this set.

I thought that I had this on CD but I couldn't find it. When I saw it on sale I immediately bought it! It has some of my favorite songs, Never Let Me Down, The Things You Said, Strangelove, Sacred, Little 15, Behind The Wheel, Nothing, Pimpf, Pleasure Little Treasure, Route 66. I'm listening to it as I write this review! Their mix of melancholy lyrics and electronic/dance music just goes so well! Even the instrumental tracks are great! (PIMPF, Agent Orange, Stjarna) I always like an eclectic mix for my MP3 player, so I usually have a lot of DM on it! I have to stop now so I can do some more shopping!

Un álbum tan legendario que solo puedo decir que suena fenomenal !!! Adoro mi disco suena excelente 😍 recomendado.

CD is awesome

Este disco es uno de mis favoritos y por fin fue remasterizado, lo he reproducido cientos de veces ya

Great album. Well mastered one of their more deep albums

これの一つ前とコレは当時から過小評価されていたように記憶してる マーティンさんがなんか世間の評価が不服だとか記事で読んだような？ MLBの電子オルガンでNever Let Me Down Againが弾かれる度にニヤリとする 一つ後のWorld in My Eyesが好きな私はこの盤だとBehind the Wheelなんかも好きです というかこのアルバムは最初から最後まで続けて聴くのがおすすめです そこらへんのシングル寄せ集めアルバムとかシングルカットにちょい水増しアルバムとは違うんで

Jest ok.

Magnifique édition vinyle soignée en 180gr, tout est parfait et le SON toujours au top !
