Synopsis

Album Description
UK import two disc (CD + PAL/Region 0 DVD) pressing of the Synthpop heroes' 2006 hits collection. Features a bonus DVD that includes 23 music videos plus a 30 minute EPK. Hailed as the most popular Electronic band in the world, Depeche Mode celebrates its 25th anniversary with the group's first genuine 'best of' collection (selected recordings rather than a compilation). The Best Of Volume 1 brings together 17 singles spanning 1981-2005, from ''Just Can't Get Enough,'' ''Everything Counts,'' ''Personal Jesus'' and ''Enjoy The Silence'' to the recent ''Precious,'' plus a new track, ''Martyr.'' One of music's most influential artists, Depeche Mode has sold more than 72 million records and remains one of today's most highly regarded and passionately supported groups. Mute. 2006.

CD Reviews

Depeche Mode - 1981-2006.
The Groove | Boston, MA | 11/21/2006
(4 out of 5 stars)

""Best of Depeche Mode Volume 1" is the fourth hits compilation from the Basildon quartet-turned-trio, but it's the first to cover their entire 25 year recording history. With the exception of "Black Celebration," the CD samples every studio album in their catalogue, with an unrelased track "Martyr," recorded during the "Playing the Angel" sessions. The bonus DVD has a collection of their music videos, though it does make a few omissions (including 1982's "See You"). There's also a documentary featuring the band along with management, producers, and former members Vince Clarke and Alan Wilder. Those who own the recently released CD/DVD reissues will recognize this clip, as it features interviews also used for the documentaries included in the CD/DVD reissues. This hits collection isn't flawless (no "Question of Time"), but for a single-disc collection, you can't go wrong with "Best of Depeche Mode Volume 1.""
A bundle of joy

"Been a fan of Depeche Mode for 22 years? Got every scrap of stuff they've ever made? Even all the singles individualy and in box sets? Then you'd expect me to say you don't need this, right? Well, wrong, I love Depeche Mode a lot, and I'm a completionist, so I had to have this. And, this version includes a dvd with the videos to go with the songs, as well as a little documentary, and the new song Martyr. I have gone along with this band, even though I still suffer from Alan Wilder leaving, even if they don't want to include the video for Get the Balance Right anywhere, and even after seeing the "video" for Martyr. Despite the fact that this compilation might seem like overkill in a year where we've had singel releases, 6 remasters and a live from Milano dvd, I'm really happy with this set, both in terms of the look and what you get with it. But would I have bought it without the DVD? Probably... I guess I'm a fan."

Doesn't get 5 stars because I'm a bit tired of record

companies re-releasing essentially the same thing in

slightly different versions to rip off fans. That said,

this collection is a must for any DM fan.
