Reseña
La discografía de Depeche Mode continúa su idilio con la electrónica en este álbum, que es una auténtica carta de amor a los sintetizadores analógicos vintage. Durante la grabación, Martin Gore adquirió una enorme colección de cajas de ritmos y sintetizadores clásicos, y por consiguiente, el sonido de "Sounds of the Universe" está deliberadamente impregnado de texturas retro-futuristas. El disco suena a la vez como un homenaje al pasado de la música electrónica y como una visión de su futuro.
De hecho, la banda experimenta con una amplia gama de ruidos, interferencias y sonidos peculiares, creando una atmósfera de ciencia ficción de serie B. Además, canciones como "Wrong", el potente primer sencillo, combinan esta estética sonora con la energía rockera que recuperaron en su anterior trabajo. Es decir, Depeche Mode logra un sonido único que es a la vez experimental y pegadizo. En resumen, "Sounds of the Universe" es un álbum para audiófilos y amantes de los sintetizadores.

[X]letra de In Chains
The way you move
Has got me yearning
The way you move
Has left me burning
I know you know what you're doing to me
I know my hands will never be free
I know what it's like to be
In chains
The way you move
Is meant to haunt me
The way you move
To tempt and taunt me
I know you knew on the day you were born
I know somehow I should've been warned
I know I walk every midnight to dawn
In Chains
In chains, I'm in chains
In chains, I'm in chains
You've got me dying for you
It's you that I'm living through
You've got me praying to you
Saying to you anything you want me to
You've got me reaching for you
My souls beseeching me too
You've got me singing to you
Bringing to you anything you ask me to
The way you move
Is mesmerizing
The way you move
Is hypnotizing
I know I crumble when you are around
Stutter, mumble, a pitiful sound
Stagger, stumble, shackled and bound
In chains
In chains, I'm in chains
In chains, I'm in chains
You've got me dying for you
It's you that I'm living through
You've got me praying to you
Saying to you anything you want me to
You've got me reaching for you
My souls beseeching me too
You've got me singing to you
Bringing to you anything you ask me to
I'm in chains
In chains, I'm in chains
In chains, I'm in chains
In chains, I'm in chains - Hole To FeedVer letra 3:59
[X]letra de Hole To Feed
We are here
We can love
We share something
I'm sure that you mean the world to me
Your name was the one that was always chosen
Your words and your kindness have set me free
Shame has a hold that has kept us frozen
You opened my eyes to a world that I could believe
And words can leave you broken inside
You'll have to decide
I'm hanging on to my pride
We are here
We can love
We share something
I'm sure that you mean the world to me
When you get what you need
There's no way of knowing
What you'll have is another hole to feed
The games that we're playing, they've left us hoping
The gift that we have, the life that we breathe
This world can leave you broken inside
With nowhere to hide
I'm hanging on to my pride
We are here
We've been chosen
We've been blessed with a place
We need to find and then open
We are here
We can love
We share something
I'm sure that you mean the world to me
When you get what you need
There's no way of knowing
What you'll have is another hole to feedComposición: Andrew Phillpott, Christian Eigner, Dave GahanMúsicos invitados: Christian Eigner (Drums), Andrew Phillpott (Programmed By [Original Programming]), Christian Eigner (Programmed By [Original Programming]) - WrongVer letra 3:13
[X]letra de Wrong
I was born with the wrong sign
In the wrong house
With the wrong ascendancy
I took the wrong road
That led to the wrong tendencies
I was in the wrong place at the wrong time
For the wrong reason and the wrong rhyme
On the wrong day of the wrong week
Used the wrong method with the wrong technique
Wrong
Wrong
There's something wrong with me chemically
Something wrong with me inherently
The wrong mix in the wrong genes
I reached the wrong ends by the wrong means
It was the wrong plan in the wrong hands
The wrong theory for the wrong man
The wrong eyes on the wrong prize
The wrong questions with the wrong replies
Wrong
Wrong
I was marching to the wrong drum
With the wrong scum
Pissing out the wrong energy
Using all the wrong lines
And the wrong signs
With the wrong intensity
I was on the wrong page of the wrong book
With the wrong rendition of the wrong hook
Made the wrong move, every wrong night
With the wrong tune played till it sounded right, yeah
Wrong
Wrong
Too long
Wrong
I was born with the wrong sign
In the wrong house
With the wrong ascendancy
I took the wrong road
That led to the wrong tendencies
I was in the wrong place at the wrong time
For the wrong reason and the wrong rhyme
On the wrong day of the wrong week
Used the wrong method with the wrong technique
Wrong - Fragile TensionVer letra 4:09
[X]letra de Fragile Tension
There's a fragile tension
That's keeping us going
It may not last forever
But oh, when it's flowing
There's something magical in the air
Something so tragic we have to care
There's a strange obsession
That's drawing us nearer
We don't understand it
It never gets clearer
There's something mystical in our genes
So simplistic it kicks and screams
Oh when we're teetering
On the edge of collapse
Nothing can keep us down
There's a dizzying feeling
That's keeping us flying
Through glittering gardens
Without even trying
There's something radical in our hands
Nothing logical to our plansMúsicos invitados: Christian Eigner (Drums) - Little SoulVer letra 3:31
[X]letra de Little Soul
My little light
Is going to shine
Shine out so bright
And illuminate your mind
My little soul
Will leave a footprint
This little voice
Is going to sing
I have no choice
It will infinitely ring
My little soul
Will leave a footprint
I'm channeling the universe
It's focusing itself inside of me
A singularity
My little words
Are going to sting
Haven't you heard
The pain and joy they bring
My little soul
Will leave a footprint
I'm channeling the universe
It's focusing itself inside of me
A singularity
Your little eyes
They're going to see
I can't disguise
The beauty inside me
My little soul
Will leave a footprint - In SympathyVer letra 4:54
[X]letra de In Sympathy
They're almost falling over you
Why don't they call a truce
Whatever they are trying to do
It's of little use
They're drowning you in compliments
Trying to furnish proof
And though they speak with eloquence
There is little truth
You're bright, you're strong
You know your right from wrong
At least to some degree
You're wise, you're tough
You've heard their lies enough
You smile in sympathy
I'm watching your serenity
The way your soul transcends
Their tedious obscenities
Your patience never ends
And as the night begins to fade
You're heading for the door
Followed by a sad parade
You're on your own once more
You're bright, you're strong
You know your right from wrong
At least to some degree
You're wise, you're tough
You've heard their lies enough
You smile in sympathy
You're bright, you're strong
You know your right from wrong
At least to some degree
You're wise, you're tough
You've heard their lies enough
You smile in sympathy - PeaceVer letra 4:29
[X]letra de Peace
Peace will come to me
Peace will come to me
I'm leaving bitterness behind
This time I'm cleaning out my mind
There is no space for the regrets
I will remember to forget
Just look at me
I am walking love incarnate
Look at the frequencies at which I vibrate
I'm going to light up the world
Peace will come to me
Peace will come to me
I'm leaving anger in the past
With all the shadows that it casts
There is a radar in my heart
I should have trusted from the start
Just look at me
I'm a living act of holiness
Giving all the positivity that I possess
I'm going to light up the world
Peace will come to me
Just wait and see
Peace will come to me
It's meant to be
Peace will come to me
Just wait and see
Peace will come to me
It's an inevitability - Come BackVer letra 5:15
[X]letra de Come Back
[Verse 1]Come back
Come back to me
I'll be waiting here
Patiently
Come back
Come back to me
I'll be waiting here
Patiently
I've been walking a thin, white line
Between love and hate
Wasting all of my time
In another world, in another place
I could use a little company
A little kindness can go a long way
Weeks turn into months
Months turn into years
Reaching the same conclusions
Gathering up the fear
Come back
Come back to me
I'll be waiting here
Patiently
I've been walking a thin, white line
Between love and hate
I could use a little company
A little kindness can go a long way
Weeks turn into months
Months turn into years
Reaching the same conclusions
Gathering up the fear
Come back
Come back to me
I'll be waiting here
Patiently
Light will always shine
In the heart of you
In truth and in reality
Only blindness can hide it away
I could use a little restraint
A little kindness can go a long way
Weeks turn into months
Months turn into years
Reaching the same conclusions
Gathering up the fear
Living the same delusion
Gathering up the fear
Gathering up the fear
Gathering up the fear
Gathering up the fear

- PerfectVer letra 4:33
[X]letra de Perfect
On another world
By another star
At another place and time
In another state of consciousness
In another state of mind
Everything was almost perfect
Everything fell into place
The jury reached a different verdict
Before the judge dismissed the case
In a parallel universe
That's happening right now
Things between us must be worse
But it's hard to see just how
And everything could have been perfect
Everything in the right place
Then I wouldn't have to play the suspect
Accused, abandoned, and disgraced
I didn't shoot
I didn't pull the trigger
It wasn't me
I'm just a plain and simple singer
I heard the sound
I turned my head around
To watch our love shot down
In another lonely universe
We're laying side by side
And no one's hurt
And no one's cursed
And no one needs to hide
And everything is almost perfect
Everything is almost right
There are never any conflicts
There are never any fights - Miles Away / The Truth Is

[X]letra de Jezebel
They call you Jezebel
Whenever we walk in
You're going straight to hell
For wanton acts of sin
They say
And that I'll have to pay
But I need you
Just this way
They call you Jezebel
For what you like to wear
You're morally unwell
They say you'll never care
For me
But what they fail to see
Is that your games
Are the key
Open their eyes to the beauty
Open their hearts to the fun
Open their minds to the idea
That you don't own someone
They call you Jezebel
Whenever men walk by
They say that they can tell
The longing in your eyes
Is real
And how you really feel
But they can't see
Your appeal
Jezebel - CorruptVer letra 8:58
[X]letra de Corrupt
I could corrupt you in a heartbeat
You think you're so special
Think you're so sweet
What are you trying
Don't even tempt me
Soon you'll be crying
And wishing you dreamt me
You'd be calling out my name
When you need someone to blame
I could corrupt you
It would be easy
Watching you suffer
Girl, it would please me
But I wouldn't touch you
With my little finger
I know it would crush you
My memory would linger
You'd be crying out in pain
Begging me to play my games
I could corrupt you
It would be ugly
They could sedate you
But what good would drugs be
But I wouldn't touch you
Put my hands on your hips
It would be too much to
Place my lips on your lips
You'd be calling out my name
Begging me to play my games

- gormaz: Es el mejor disco de Depeche desde 101. Son más Depeche con sonidos más elaborados. Casi una vuelta a sus comienzos. A mi me recuerdan algunas de las primeras canciones. TODOS SON FABULOSOS.
De hecho, la banda experimenta con una amplia gama de ruidos, interferencias y sonidos peculiares, creando una atmósfera de ciencia ficción de serie B. Además, canciones como "Wrong", el potente primer sencillo, combinan esta estética sonora con la energía rockera que recuperaron en su anterior trabajo. Es decir, Depeche Mode logra un sonido único que es a la vez experimental y pegadizo. En resumen, "Sounds of the Universe" es un álbum para audiófilos y amantes de los sintetizadores.
