Ultra is in a way the album I like the most. Maybe (surely) not their best, but there's something of it that
captures every time. Barrel of a Gun, Home, It's Not Good are great songs and very well known, but I go
really maniac when listening to Jazz Thieves-Freestate-The Bottom Line altogether. I don't know why,
but in some way I really think these 3 songs are something magic, and are one of Depeche Mode
highest peaks in songwriting.
A suggestion for those who have never seen them live; wait for Home sung by Martin, and enjoy one
of the best and emotional moments.
