Maybe most devoted fans dislike me, but in my opinion the SOTU album is the worst, because there is no ground or something styleforming sound. Except "Wrong" is a hard sound like "Barrel of a gun" or something.
From that case "A Broken Frame" is the better album, because they were younger and without the influnce and groundbreaking work of Alan Wilder!
Just the opinion of a devotee since 1982...;-)

@moments242 Kinda new to the DM scene and kicking myself for it, but i find SOTU to be pretty solid, when i compare them to a band like U2, SOTU is incredibly original and relevant for a band thats been around so long. Ive been mostly sticking to earlier DM, but SOTU sounds more cohesive and interesting to me than Ultra & Exciter. The opening of In Chains, Hole To Fee & Wrong especially. I cant think of any band that can make something that interesting at this stage of their career

@moments242 For me, there's no worst album. Less favorite, but not worst.

There's a lot of magic in this song, Depeche mode is greatest band of all.

@moments242 What do you mean there is no ground? Depeche mode is all about innovation and that's what SOTU is, and they already have reached such high standard you can't simply say that they don't have ''something styleforming sound'' listen to wrong, peace, miles away, corrupt, in chains and in simpathy THAT'S MATURITY!!!

Every DM album is soo important and so beatiful. :) some more, some less... but years ago PTA teached me how to compose music.. and SOTU then teached me how to compose lyrics.. And now in 2012 im sure that music would be my future, thanks to GREAT DEPECHE MODE.

@SuperSaladEaterz get the balance right is not on it, even tho it is my fave dm tune

@Nakian hard to say 'cos worst is not a word i would use for dm albums in the 80s, they got worse in the 00s
Martin Gore often said that A broken frame was their worst album, but considering that that album had songs like these (leave in silence, see you, my secret garden and this deep, innovative and pure tune), how can he use 'worst' for this album!! They also set up their dark sound with this album,

@BlackSkyThunder Id say CTA is the worst.
