Calm Down People

"I realize that many people have mixed views about Dave Gahan's writing ability. I always say keep it simple which is exactly what he does with this album. I am an avid DM fan and have been for years. It's wonderful to see Dave finally take the initiative to write and sing his own songs. I think this is his best work yet. His post somber period has ended. His debut, "Paper Monsters" was a nice effort at breaking away from DM, but "Hourglass" is the bomb! My fave track on this CD so far is "A Little Lie." I am also enamored by "Deeper and Deeper", "Use You", and "21 Days." Of course his release of "Kingdom" and "Saw Something" was on the money, but the aforementioned tracks are his best kept secrets. Well done album. Buy it. You will enjoy it. I give it 5 stars. I love the dark, gritty electronic sound that this album displays. And oh, let's not forget Dave's signature baritone voice. Can't get a better mixture of vocal and sound in one album."
Not bad, not bad at all.

"Simply stated, David Gahan is at his best. "Kingdom" and the title track are amazing songs. But don't take my word for it, buy this album."
Solid Effort By Mr. Gahan

"Dave Gahan's second solo album is quite the departure from his debut - Paper Monsters. While the first one was more blues and rock influenced, Hourglass is clearly more of a DM sounding record. Both are different albums but they are great records.



With Hourglass, Dave has made an even more personal record with themes of mortality, religion and of course love. Standout tracks are Kingdom, Saw Something and Use You. A song that really touched me was Miracles as I feel the same way about my maker as Dave does. As Dave says, he keeps praying anyway. So do I.



I hope Dave continues to make records in between his work with DM. He's making a nice body of work that he can be proud of."
