VCMG, “Ssss” (Mute, 2012)
This is Vince Clarke and Martin Gore, founding members of Depeche Mode, together again for the first time since Clarke split after DM’s first album to form Yaz, then Erasure. And while this isn’t synth-pop, it is seriously excellent—throbbing minimal-electro as a platform for quicksilver slashes and waves of shimmering, twisted sound, like a gay-cyborg version of Prodigy at their most relentless.
