C'è chi dice che i DM sono solo in grado di sfornare singoli da classifica ma che i loro brani non riescono a reggere un intero album. Violator smentisce seccamente questa diceria, e come lo fa? Per prima cosa piazzando i brani con più carattere in maniera strategica all'interno della scaletta (World in my eyes la prima, Personal Jesus la terza, Enjoy the silence la sesta) e soprattutto creando ... read more

"Lähentelee maailman parhaan levyn titteliä. Mikään toinen levy ei säilytä koko kestoaan näin tasaisen vahvaa tunnetta. Jokainen biisi on omalla tavallaan täydellinen. Kokonaisuus huokuu täydellisyyttä. Biisijärjestys on vallan mainio. Alussa mennään eikä meinata, sitten keskivaiheella vähän rauhoitutaan, mutta lopussa on muutama kovempi veto. Ihan loppu on taidokkaasti hallittu laskeutuminen. Tämän levyn kanssa ei aika käy pitkäksi.

Violator passa indenne la prova forward e passa indenne anche la prova del tempo. Con quest'album s'è avverata la massificazione profetizzata dai DM: dal 19” read more
""For many Depeche Mode fans, Violator is the crowning glory of the boys' black-leather period. In "Sweetest Perfection," "Halo" and "World in My Eyes," they turn teen angst and sexual obsession into grand synth-pop melodrama, and their attempt at guitar rock resulted in a hit with "Personal Jesus."'"
