Took me a while to get into Depeche mode. I 'm still not into all of their stuff but Violator and Music for the Masses are awesome.

Excellent nineties chart! I especially love OK Computer (I suppose everyone does, but with good reason), Nevermind, The Bends, and Siamese Dream, among a number of your other selections. I also really appreciate Ritual De Lo Habitual as a top ten pick, as I just heard "Been Caught Stealing" at the coffee shop this morning and was reflecting on what an iconic song that was back when it first came out. It might have the honor of being the best pro-shoplifting song of all time.
