    This is just a great album,one of their best indeed,the youthful innocense before they got destroyd? (more or less by fame and introduction of guitars and black clothes).I don’t know why many fantastic pop bands have gone down the same path of sort of self destruction(drugs etc.).The early eighties was a wonderful time,new wave synth bands to come forward and change the music scene with new ideas and so on!.A broken frame with it’s fantastic cover is a good album as well for all synth pop fans with great songs from Martin Gore.
