Construction Time Again (1983): Their 3rd album, but first good one. Speak & Spell had too much Vince Clarke (Erasure) in it. A Broken Frame was a bit minimalist. DM takes on politics, corruption, and the environment. Adding Alan Wilder as a instrumentalist was brilliant. Catchy pop tunes ("The Landscape is Changing," "Told You So," "Everything Counts") with some meaning...well ahead of their time.
