Depeche Mode

I picked up the new Depeche Mode album Playing the Angel. True to form, thisalbum is chock-full of religious themes. John the Revelator has been one of the radio singles and is a critique of the book of Revelation. Suffer Well is a song of redemption. Sinner In Me is a hard look at our inability to get rid of the worst parts of ourselves, and Precious has a great use of chimes while wondering if God really has a plan for what is going on in life. Playing the Angel is a solid album that is definitely worth a listen.
