Delta Machine is the thirteenth studio album by English electronic music band Depeche Mode, released on 22 March 2013 by Columbia Records and Mute Records. Recorded in 2012 in Santa Barbara, California and New York City, the album was produced by Ben Hillier and mixed by Flood.[2] A deluxe edition was also released, containing a bonus disc with four bonus tracks, as well as a 28-page hardcover book including photos by Anton Corbijn.[2]

"Heaven" was released as the album's lead single on 31 January 2013.[3] The second single from the album, "Soothe My Soul", was released on 10 May 2013.[4] followed by "Should Be Higher" on 11 October 2013.[5] Following the album's release, Depeche Mode embarked on the Delta Machine Tour, which kicked off in Nice, France on 4 May 2013, and wrapped up in Moscow on 7 March 2014.[6]

Background and composition

Delta Machine marks the end of the trilogy of records that Depeche Mode were doing with producer Ben Hillier, as stated by Dave Gahan.[7]

The album is Martin L. Gore and Gahan's thematic continuation to a dark, gloomy and bluesy aesthetic that Depeche Mode had started to explore in the late 1980s. The Quietus writer Luke Turner considered it as their "most powerful, gothic, twisted, electronic album since Violator".[8]

The album's second track "Angel" was compared to Nick Cave with a touch of electro-blues.[9] James Manning of Time Out observed that Gahan howled like Nick Cave on that track.[10]

"Soft Touch/Raw Nerve" was referred to as "a burst of robotic garage that tips its hat to early Roxy Music".[11]

Delta Machine received generally positive reviews from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted mean rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 65, based on 32 reviews.[12] Entertainment Weekly‍ '​s Kyle Anderson hailed Delta Machine as "the strongest album the group has put out this century" and praised the work of collaborator Christoffer Berg, stating he "lends a long-lost toughness that runs through much of Delta, especially the end-of-days bass loop that underscores 'Secret to the End' and the insistent pounding of 'Soft Touch / Raw Nerve.'"[14] The Times critic Will Hodgkinson commented that the album "finds the band striking just the right balance between the chirpy electro-pop of their early days and the harsh industrial dissonance of the later albums".[21] Benjamin Boles of Now proclaimed it as "the best album of [Depeche Mode's] career", stating that the songs "find the band leaping in thrillingly unexpected directions and landing on their feet every time", and that the electronic elements evoke "moody German techno more than the bouncy synth-pop we expect from the English trio."[22]

Laurence Green of musicOMH opined that the album "lays the template for some of the band's most vigorous, energetic material in 15 years", concluding, "In what has always been a frighteningly consistent career, Delta Machine stands there amongst the band's finest work."[23] Mat Smith of Clash noted that "[t]he freshness comes through in the delivery, which is as loose as electronic music permits, delivered with the bluesy rawness that frontman Dave Gahan wanted from the album."[13] Despite writing that Gore's lyrics "usually spoil things", The Daily Telegraph‍ '​s Neil McCormick found that he has "an interesting approach to minor key melodies, wandering into almost jazzy territory of odd modulations, but he's always ready with a highly charged singalong burst when it is required."[24] James Manning of Time Out London referred to the album as "one of the best things [the band have] ever recorded", dubbing it "a big, dark, dramatic record of a band confidently expanding on an established sound". However, Manning felt that Gore "still doesn't have the vocal swagger to carry off some of his more melodramatic lyrics".[10] AllMusic editor David Jeffries described the album as "a well-written [...] and lusciously recorded set of serpentine siren songs", adding that "[t]hose who don't buy into the dark eroticism that drives the album will be disappointed as well, but don't mistake 'dour' for 'down for it' when it comes dressed-in-leather pants, because the simmering and dark Delta Machine is certainly the latter."[1]

Rolling Stone‍ '​s Jon Dolan stated that the album "celebrates brooding faith and slippery solace without scrimping on Depeche's trademark blackstrobe punishment."[20] Slant Magazine's Jesse Cataldo characterised Delta Machine as "another reasonably strong effort for a band that's managed to get wise without growing too old."[25] Caroline Sullivan of The Guardian expressed that on Delta Machine, "Depeche Mode are as hamstrung as ever by their refusal to admit even a chink of light into their world of gloom [...] The flip side of the coin is that the austere music that accompanies all this darkness is often very beautiful", commending the band for their ability to "balance lushness and minimalism to stunning effect".[15] In a mixed review for Pitchfork Media, Douglas Wolk criticised the album lyrically, while concluding, "There is not a single moment of shock or freshness on Delta Machine, and it's enormously frustrating to hear what was once a band of futurists so deeply mired in resisting change."[19] Andy Gill of The Independent panned Delta Machine as the band's "weakest album in some while" and argued that "[t]he more melodramatically that David Gahan invites us to have him 'penetrate your soul... bleed into your dreams', the more the sculpted electronic backdrops seem like curtains hiding the puniness of the wizards wielding the machines."[16] The Observer‍ '​s Kitty Empire viewed that "a kind of blood-red synthetic blues bubbles to the fore; it blows hot and cold."[18] Emily Mackay of the NME commented, "Things improve with the defter 'Soft Touch/Raw Nerve' and 'Soothe My Soul', but Delta Machine sounds like it's just warming up."[17]

Commercial performance

Delta Machine debuted at number two on the UK Albums Chart, selling 28,450 copies in its first week; it is Depeche Mode's sixteenth album to reach the UK top ten.[26] It slipped to number fourteen the following week, selling 7,146 copies.[27] In the United States, the album entered the Billboard 200 at number six with 52,000 copies sold in its opening week, earning the band their seventh top ten album on the chart.[28] The album debuted at number one on the German Albums Chart with first-week sales of 142,000 units.[29] In France, Delta Machine debuted on the French Albums Chart at number two, selling 52,000 copies.[30] The album sold 8,200 copies to debut at number two on the Canadian Albums Chart.[31]
