Totally kinky compilation!!!

(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."
