>What is the best
It's Violator. Always has and always will. Only a niche few enjoy early, upbeat Depeche mode.
But that album you posted is pretty damn good.

ALL HE EVER GIVES US IS PAIN

For me, it's pic related.

Playing The Angel is solid though.

Any DM album without Alan Wilder is not DM.
Might as well just call it the Martin Gore show.

If picrel actually had But Not Tonight it would've been equally as good as Violator, which is their best.

The albums before Violator feel darker to me, ignoring the first two of course.

All their albums to me are great except for everything after Playing the Angel. DM redpill for ya.

I think all of their albums are good, Spirit is the worst one but it's still pretty good.

JUST GIVE ME PAIN I AM USED TO
I DON'T NEED TO BELIEVE ALL THE DREAMS YOU CONCEIVE
YOU JUST NEED TO ACHIEVE
SOMETHING THAT RINGS TRUE

I fucking love this album

Is DM done now with Fletch gone?

Black Celebration > Violator > Music For The Masses > Playing The Angel > Songs Of Faith And Devotion > Some Great Reward > Ultra > Exciter > Sounds Of The Universe > Delta Machine > Construction Time Again > Spirit > A Broken Frame > Speak and Spell

I always felt like this one is too Alt.Rock inspired which I don't like.

PRECIOUS AND FRAGILE THINGS

NEEDS SPECIAL HANDLING

For me it's these two.
But also Sounds of the Universe is p neat

SEVEN LIES! MULTPLIED BYNSEVEN! MULTPLIED BY SEVEN AGAIN!

Whichever has Everything Counts

Based Playing the Angel enjoyers itt.

Also, I JUST HANG OOOOONNNN

SUFFER WELL

I love how noisy this album sounds, most seem to dislike that, but to me it seems to have a lot of edge
