I loved this album in the early 80s...

I had a bit of a penchant for early Depeche Mode and synth / electro pop in general. Even though this album did really well, I still felt that they seemed a bit like outsiders - especially compared to other bands around at the time like Blancmange or OMD. I sort of felt that even then, they had a different path to follow and when The Colour Of Spring came out it certainly confirmed that there was whole other side to them.
