Product Description
Amazon.ca
Violator is Depeche Mode's most mainstream, chart-climbing album. Although it contains only nine tracks, half of them are tailor-made for the dance floor. This album was conceived when dance-club DJs were gaining recognition alongside original composers. Heavily influenced by techno-pop, the singles "Policy of Truth," "Enjoy the Silence," and "World in My Eyes" prove that DM did their homework. A particular highlight on this fantastic album is the bluesy guitar line Martin Gore lays down on top of the synth-dominated grooves on "Personal Jesus." --Beth Bessmer
Product Description

Format:LP Record
First, the product description says '2006 UK Edition' but what I received was made in Canada, in 2007. The amazon description should be more precise. Second, the vinyl arrived warped, with an unglued sleeve. It's a good thing Amazon has a decent return policy.
Format:Audio CD
This is Depeche Mode's album. Martin Gore himself said that if God was judging them, he would give them a 7 out of 10, which I also believe is a fair estimate of the band. However this album (along with Speak and Spell) is album that deserves a 9 out of 10 or even a perfect 10. Every song on this album is fantastic. The standout songs are obviously Enjoy the Silence, World in my eyes, Policy of truth, but the remaining songs are all great. Highly recommended.
However buyers should take note that this is the N. American releases of the CD&DVD album, which means the CD is NOT a SACD-hybrid. In fact the Europe-release SACD versions are no longer available (except for some ridiculous sum on Ebay).

this is officially dep mode's best album,
i think along with "faith & devotion"
the best bits here are "world in my eyes" (straight down to earth!), "personal jesus" (touch faith!), "enjoy the silence (all i ever wanted)" & "halo" - voted by xfm radio listeners as dep mode's best song ever!
i also love "blue dress"
this is a brilliant collection for someone like me, who has loved the boppin' electro boys since the '80s.
along with "behind the wheel" & "strange love" this album has all my fave dep mode songs.

It's all been leading to this point...
This is one of the best electronic albums ever created, and the sheer re-playability of it is stunning. You listen once; good. Listen twice; better. Read more

One of the best CD's ever
Definitely Depeche Mode's best CD and one of the best CD's ever. Every song on Violator is fantastic and anyone who doesn't think this record deserves 5 stars is flat out wrong.

Best Depeche Mode Album, Hands Down
In 1991, DM's Violator was my first purchase of something that was of true, bona-fide, musical importance. It still ranks as one my all-time favorites. Read more
