Synopsis

Album Description
2009 two CD set. Depeche Mode are a rare band, carefully walking the fine line between mainstream and alternative audiences without ever compromising their sound. Having formed in 1980, Depeche Mode are one of the longest running and most influential bands to have emerged from the then blossoming New Wave scene. This tribute to them is a testament to that, with bands from a wide array of musical genres paying homage to Depeche Mode. Certainly in the bands contained in this record, whose amazing cover versions stand up as a true representation that there are literally millions of fans out there who quite simply "Just Can't Get Enough". Features tracks from Tina Root (of Switchblade Symphony), Freezepop, The Ineffable and many others. Redline.
 

CD Reviews

Totally kinky compilation!!!
Michael Mueller | Germany | 05/12/2009
(1 out of 5 stars)

"Apart from the fact that this "Ultimate Tribute" does not contain any new track at all, because all featured tracks have already been released on earlier Depeche Mode tribute compilations by this label, it is just an absolute barefacedness what they expect of the customer.



- The track list printed on the sleeve is completely different from the actual track list. In fact this compilation features the following tracks:



Disc 1:

1. Stripped - Shiny Toy Guns

2. Blasphemous Rumours - Blasphemous Garden

3. Everything Counts - Sirens Of Sound

4. Just Can't Get Enough - Bypass Unit

5. Never Let Me Down Again - The Ineffable Orchestra

6. Behind The Wheel - Kirk

7. Policy Of Truth - Disown

8. It's No Good - Orphans Of Infamy

9. Little 15 - Mirrorman

10. Behind The Wheel - Kirk

11. I Feel Loved - Awakened States



Disc 2:

1. Personal Jesus - Disorient Nation

2. Any Second Now - Para One

3. In Your Room - Harshrealm

4. Higher Love - The Ineffable Orchestra

5. One Caress - Godheads

6. Shake The Disease - Orchestrating Noise

7. Never Let Me Down Again - Tina Root (Of Switchblade Symphony)

8. Just Can't Get Enough - Company Of None

9. Photographic - Freezepop

10. Useless - The Ineffable Orchestra

11. Pimpf - Axis_01

12. Get The Balance Right - The Scarabs



- the track "Kirk - Behind The Wheel" is included even TWICE identically on disc 1!!!

- the track "Hineon - Policy Of Truth" is not included, although listed on the sleeve

- the track "Audio Science - Strangelove" is not included, although listed on the sleeve

- the track "The Ineffable Orchestra - Enjoy The Silence" is not included, although listed on the sleeve even both for disc one AND disc two!!!

- the track "The Ineffable Orchestra - I Feel You" is not included, although listed on the sleeve

- "Personal Jesus" has never been recorded by "Orchestrating Noise", although the track list on the sleeve pretends this. This version is in fact by the band "Disorient Nation".

- countless typos, totally wrong orders, wrong info at all, and a very thin 2-page booklet without any further liner notes

- the artwork is different (black instead of yellow) from the artwork displayed here on amazon



Unfortunately I cannot give zero stars, otherwise I would have surely done that. Apart from that I would just like to warn everybody against buying this dilettantish compilation."
