In my opinion, it is their best CD. It's dark yet hopeful (well, as hopeful as Depeche Mode gets *grin*) and every song is great. And it's deeply personal, which is definitely a selling point for me. The first single, "Precious," makes me cry. It's beautiful and touching. It was written for Martin Gore's children during his divorce.

I know. I know. Too much information. :+)
