About Violator

Released twenty years ago in 1990, Depeche Mode’s seventh studio album continued a commercial and artistic flirtation with the American west, the guitar, the synth, and the sampler, all while stretching the structural form of the pop song and was named one of Rolling Stone’s “500 Greatest Albums of All Time.”
