Originally released in 2005, Playing The Angel marked a bold new chapter for Depeche Mode. Produced by Ben Hillier for the first time, the album introduced a rawer, grittier edge to the band’s signature electronic sound—bridging the primal roots of rock with the pulse of modern techno dancefloors.
Home to the global hit “Precious” alongside fan favorites “Suffer Well,” “John The Revelator,” and “A Pain That I’m Used To,” the album pushed the group into darker, more intense sonic territory while reaffirming their position as pioneers of electronic music 25 years into their career.
