Depeche Mode – Some Great Reward LP

Depeche Mode – Some Great Reward LP

Some Great Reward is the fourth studio album by British electronic band Depeche Mode. Originally released in 1984, it marked an important step in the band’s development, combining synth-pop songwriting with darker electronic textures, industrial-influenced sounds and more mature lyrical themes.

This single LP edition includes Something To Do, Lie To Me, People Are People, It Doesn’t Matter, Stories Of Old, Somebody, Master And Servant, If You Want and Blasphemous Rumours. The album is especially important for People Are People, Master And Servant, Somebody and Blasphemous Rumours, and it remains one of the key records in Depeche Mode’s early-to-mid 1980s catalogue.

This LP vinyl reissue was released by Venusnote Ltd. on 25 August 2016. The edition presents the album as a single-record remastered vinyl release for Depeche Mode fans, synth-pop collectors and listeners interested in the band’s transition toward a darker electronic sound.

On a good hi-fi system, Some Great Reward should sound tight, rhythmic and atmospheric: clear electronic percussion, strong synth textures, expressive vocals and the darker studio character that made this album a major step forward for Depeche Mode.
