	Black Celebration (album) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Black Celebration is an album by the British group Depeche Mode.
		Black Celebration is the Depeche Mode album that has the most songs with Martin Gore on lead vocals: "A Question of Lust", "Sometimes", "It Doesn't Matter Two", and "World Full of Nothing".
		The voice at the beginning of "Black Celebration" is Daniel Miller (impersonating Winston Churchill) saying "A Brief Period of Rejoicing".

	Stripped (single) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It was the first single from the album Black Celebration.
		"Black Day" is an acoustic version of "Black Celebration" sung by Martin Gore, and is co-written by him, Alan Wilder, and Daniel Miller.
		A 1998 cover version of "Stripped" was recorded by the German band Rammstein, and released as a single, as well as on the For the Masses compilation and some versions of Sehnsucht.

	Encyclopedia: Black Celebration (album)
		It became evident with the "Black Celebration" album that Depeche Mode were starting to, as Martin put it, "make harder sounding records".
		The songs on this album reflect on how painful it was for Depeche to record this album.
		Following the Black Celebration Tour, their most successful American tour to that date, the band followed it up with "Music for the Masses".

	Black Celebration: Robert Smith On The New Cure Album
		There's no obvious single on the album and they got kind of nervous about what they were going to do with it.
		The various major labels wanted it to be a greatest hits album, but I insisted that it was kept as another decade of singles, and I held out.
		It was actually more difficult for me to become the leader of this sort of weird cult than it was actually to make the transition from that into the late-'80s when the band became commercially successful with their singles, particularly in America.

	A Broken Frame (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		'Black Celebration' doesn't only see them go a bit weirder with lots of dark, mysterous percussive episodes (sung by Dave Gahan) snuggling up again sweet, fragile and rather sinister ballads (sung by Martin Gore) but it is also the first time they haven't had to throw in any second-rate stodge.
		Black Celebration is a mixed bag that hits the mark more often than not.
		Black Celebration was Depeche Mode's first album to enter the US top 100.

		Album #2, A Broken Frame, came out in 1982 and was followed by Construction Time Again, containing the dance favorite Everything Counts.
		Black Celebration was a turning point when Depeche Mode’s records were beginning to get harder and somehow darker—it’s been said to be the most difficult album they’ve ever made.
		The live album 101 came out in 1989—recorded from their 101st live concert at a full Pasadena Rose Bowl, warmed up the audiences for their actual breakthrough album—Violator.

		Violator is hardly a "Poor" album, but it is the most commercial of all their albums.
		"Black Celebration" is an album I feel is better, "Construction Time Again" is very good as well.
		The 'Singles 81-85' album was actually the first DM album I bought.

		In the beginning of 'Fly On The Windscreen' (the version on 'Black Celebration'), there is a sample of someone talking.
		'Black Celebration' was no different in this respect and it signaled the end of a co-production relationship with Dan Miller (although I should add, not a falling out).
		After 'Black Celebration', Depeche Mode seemed to tone down the metal-bashing and use of metallic-noises.

		Depeche Mode's most foreboding album, leaning toward the gothic, is DM at their most bleak, fl-armband and nihilistic--no doubt played over and over by countless self-loathing teens as they dyed their hair fl behind locked bedroom doors.
		Black Celebration is one of the finest Depeche Mode albums ever to have been released (Second only to Violator in my opinion).
		After listening to the entire album and having it end with this song, you can't help but fall into a state of melancholy (or "depressed mode" as it were), which is fine if that's where you want to go.

		The album cover perfectly portrays what the mood of the album is like; the hazy sunset portrays the bleak minor tracks and the bullhorns seem to portray the extremely experimental, and downright sonic bite of the music.
		although fl celebration and some great reward are my favorite depeche mode albums, music for the masses is the most special dm album for me. when i heard "strangelove" for the first time, i got goosebumps.
		'fl celebration' (still) sounds detached and cold, sometimes robotic and harsh (it may be the songs, however).

		Released on March 17th 1986, Black Celebration is the album that finally established Dave Gahan and co. as the quintessential purveyors of dark pop music, capitalising on the unexpected success of Blasphemous Rumours.
		Gore felt that this album was his first real effort to write something introspective, and this song was to be given priority as one that could not be squandered and passed on to Dave Gahan to expertly perform.
		When a tribute album For the Masses: A tribute to Depeche Mode was released in 1999, it came as no surprise that artists as wide ranging as Verucca Salt and Rammstein all contributed to the project.

		But besides breaking new ground-as DM always does, this is the album that catapulted the Fab-4 into the "goth" catagory and earned them the nickname "Depressed Mode".What I REALLY want to emphasize here is how far ahead of its time this album was-though recorded in the 80s, I honestly feel that it was meant for...
		it seemed to be the last dm album martin truly indulged his fl fantasies (in later releases he would give religion/god equal time).
		the album's titular track left little doubt as to the album's direction: 'let's have a fl celebration...tonight': a rather ominous foreshadowing of the album's tone.

		Many people hail Violator as DM's best album, i say that before their complete world domination, it was Black Celebration that in a way climaxed with Violator.
		The sound of BLACK CELEBRATION is still techno (or space-age, as some like to refer to) but a bit more gothic in his treatment.

		Black Celebration was a turning point in the music of Depeche Mode.
		Musically it is relatively unique: DM has always had a strong beat, and on Black Celebration they began to add more atmosphere and harmony, while still avoiding the clutter and chaos that a lot of 80s music turned into.
		The previous and following albums, Some Great Reward and Music for the Masses, are most similar to Black Celebration, but the music on this album is still unique.

	Blogcritics.org: CD Review: Depeche Mode, Black Celebration
		Black Celebration combines Martin L. Gore's dark lyrics and music with Alan Wilder's spectacular sonic landscape.
		Black Celebration would be followed by the hugely successful Music For The Masses, which is a very different album than Black Celebration, and from that point DM's music matured and moved away a bit from the darkness of Black Celebration.
		Over time Black Celebration has lost a little of its appeal for me (now that I'm 37, and I first heard Black Celebration when I was 19), but it is still one of DM's finest albums.

	DVD Talk Forum - Best Depeche Mode Album?
		Black Celebration is a great record, but I would have to go with Violator.
		Black Celebration is nearly perfect but loses major points from me for "New Dress." I think the title track and Stripped are equally best on that album.
		I'm not a huge live albums fan but this one just really does it for me, and great renditions of their songs.

	Depeche Mode: album reviews and ratings
		"Black Celebration is arguably Depeche Mode's darkest effort yet, where Gore's lyrics reflect pain, agony and nihilism.
		While keeping the same dark and slow tempo mood of their preceding album, DM have chosen a more minimalist approach on Exciter where many layers of sound were stripped down in comparison to other DM releases, resulting in songs that emphasize on tunes and vocals.
		A "greatest hits remixed" collection, Remixes 81-04 is both a celebration and a flashback of the evolution of the remix and of Depeche Mode.

		The album closes with "But Not Tonight", a surprisingly optimistic offering in both word and music.

		Martin Gore takes lead vocals on several tracks, the most he's ever sung on an album- single A Question of Lust is one of their finest moments; while Sometimes is a minimal track, a more oblique approach at the territory covered in 1984's classic Somebody.
		New Dress concludes the album in a dark dissection of celebrity culture as reported by the tabloids, juxtaposed with an entropic list of woes across the world (though Gore does get across the validity of voting to a People are People-styled section towards the end!).
		Black Celebration is an album that I've listened to since it's release in 1986, and along with Violator it is my favourite album of theirs.
