Damn...this is extremely difficult to call.

The moment I think the answer is Depeche Mode an inner voice tells me, "But...but...what about the Cure album Disintegration? What about the song 'Burn' on The Crow soundtrack?" And then I start to question myself for initially choosing Depeche Mode.

I don't know.

Depeche Mode

Violator is on the best albums ever, and Martin Gore is one of the most underrated songwriters in the business.

I disagree. It's extremely close. If you compare each band's best work, both libraries are extremely solid.

Don't get me wrong. The Cure is one of my favorite bands. Top 10 for sure!

Hence why I can't decide between Depeche Mode and The Cure. Depeche Mode is also top 10 in my opinion.

I'm currently listening to "Everything Counts" by Depeche Mode and am about to set it on repeat. However, I've went thru periods of time when all I listened to for weeks was The Cure.









I'm just waiting for my Morrissey/Smiths binge to come soon. It's been a while...

if you say the cure, youre a fricking tool


they are terrible live and extremely gothic with cheezy 80s sound effects


Depeche mode is the only correct answer

What a coincidence that the first song on the radio when I get in my car is "Just Can't Get Enough"

Dave Gahan would whip Robert Smith's emo arse.
