Depeche Mode | Construction Time Again

On August 22nd, 1983—synthpop legends Depeche Mode came into their own with the release of their third studio album Construction Time Again. The album was recorded at John Foxx’s Garden Studios in London, and engineered by Gareth Jones (who had also engineered Foxx’s first post-Ultravox 1980 album Metamatic, which featured “Underpass”) and mixed at the Hansa Ton studio in Berlin.  Prior to the recording of the record, Martin Gore reportedly attended an Einstürzende Neubauten concert, giving him the idea to experiment with the sounds of industrial music, which was augmented by the production from Jones, who did the same for DM’s fellow Mute artists Fad Gadget on the single Collapsing New People (a song whose very title pays homage to Neubauten.)

The importance of this album is evident in the fact that this was the first Depeche Mode album featuring Alan Wilder as a full band member. Wilder wrote the songs “Two Minute Warning” and “The Landscape Is Changing”, as well as the B-side Fools. The title comes from the second line of the first verse of the track “Pipeline”.

Construction Time Again features one of Depeche Mode’s most popular singles of all time, the politically charged “Everything Counts” (above), as well as

“Love in Itself” 

and “Told You So”

Tracklist:

  1. Love In Itself
  2. More Than a Party
  3. Pipeline
  4. Everything Counts
  5. Two Minute Warning
  6. Shame
  7. The Landscape Is Changing
  8. Told You So
  9. And Then…
  10. Everything Counts (reprise)
