Here's great collaboration with Alison Goldfrapp on Ocean from Goldfrapp's lp Silver Eye, Deluxe version. Their vocals alone, are gorgeous; together...ethereal:

I grew up listening to some of DM classic albums ' Music For The Masses ' , 'Violator' , ' Song Of Faith and Devotion ' and 'Ultra' are my favourite !
The band have been highly influential in the electronic dance music scene, especially synthpop, techno and trance. https://www.last.fm/music/Depeche+Mode |

Depeche Mode wrote one, maybe two songs that are great, but overall they're other stuff ranges anywhere from boring to OK, it's listenable. Their other stuff just doesn't pique my curiosity. They don't impress me enough to want to sit through a whole album by them. I do listen to bands that remind me of DM, but still that's not enough for me to want to go back and listen to any DM. So in my book they are not great. They are just in the middle, there are other bands better than them, and other bands worse than them.
