Editors’ NotesOver the years Depeche Mode’s renegade synth-heavy sound became the conventional standard and the band reformulated its own attack to include guitars and other standard instrumentation to compliment Martin Gore’s deceptively “pop” songwriting. This time out, Depeche Mode offer up a mellow batch of songs that aren't great, but they aren't bad.

"The Sweetest Condition" appears to be a sequel to "The Sweetest Perfection" from "Violator" but "Exciter" is not as good as that cd is. If there are few storming arena-shaking numbers this time out, the exquisite delicacy throughout is addicting, with Gore's guitar providing slippery and stinging leads to the smoky, romantic flow of Exciter.
