Depeche Modes tenth album, SONGS OF FAITH AND DEVOTION, finds the band reinventing itself somewhat. Not that itd been exactly treading water, but its last several albums had explored and refined a particular aesthetic of dark lyrical themes and minor-key synthesizer atmospherics. However, in 1993s grunge era, lyrical mopeyness was endemic and keyboards were rapidly becoming out of date. Wisely, Depeche Mode sought to change both elements of its music, not just one. Incorporating guitars--most notably on the oddly blues-derived "I Feel You"--and other instruments into its songs was a canny move, but the stroke of genius is in Martin Gores lyrics, which largely abandon the bleakness of the bands more recent work in favor of cautious optimism and spiritual questions. In an age of irony, the real surprise was that this albums title was not particularly ironic.
