5.0 out of 5 stars The String Quartet Tribute to Depeche Mode ~ Buzzy LeBeau, April 17, 2005
By Bjorn Viberg (European Union) - See all my reviews
There have been many really bad tributes to Depeche Mode and many that sound like they have been made in a basement with cheap toy keyboards and even worst vocals. Like the worst karaoke versions possible. This is a very good and different tribute album which is a string quartet that has taken Depeche Modes tracks and remade them to fit a string quartet and the result is astounding. They have picked som excellent songs to work with, i.e., In your room, people are people and many others. Yes it sounds nothing like the orginal tracks however it confirms what I have always believed that Depeche Mode are much better muisicians then what they have been given credit as being. Their songs are not simply keyboard jingles but just as complex as bands such as U2 and many other rock acts. The cover is obvious tribute to the 1990 release violator and the book-let is sparse but effective.

4.0 out of 5 stars Like It, Don't Love It, July 25, 2006
There have been many really bad tributes to Depeche Mode and this is not one of them.This is different since it is with a string quartet. The result is astounding, if you like string quartets that sound like Depeche Mode. The song selection was done rather well. Although, it seems to sound nothing like the orginal tracks. Despite that, it confirms what is often believed that Depeche Mode are much better muisicians then what they have been given credit as being.

I wonder though, do they (the string artists here) even like or listen to Depeche Mode or similar artists like New Order or even Duran Duran. This may have been mostly a marketing ploy. Either way, this falls a little flat. There are moments of altered-brilliance, but it mostly seems to inacuratly display the subtleties and true emotion of Depeche Mode.

Mostly though, this is just an album, not a Depeche Mode album, because it's not them, so don't think of it that way.

3.0 out of 5 stars Sounded rushed, July 6, 2004
By A Customer
Of course, it cannot be expected that String Quartet organizers actually appreciate the various artists they make "tributes" to. Its more a marketing effort or a novel approach. In any event, the DM tribute falls a little flat. There are moments of achievement, but generally the artists seem to miss the emotions and subtleties of DM.

I bought it and spun it a few times. You may want to pass.

2.0 out of 5 stars A tacky ploy to make yet another unnecessary record
This is one string quartet tribute to steer clear from.
