Mar 25, 2023This is one of their best works in a long time. I had a huge expectations on this album, but this album succeded!it sounds Gloomy, depressing but with a touch of brightness for some reason. A brilliant album. I can't wait to see them live again!

Mar 24, 2023Time after time the band comes through. Thank you boys for another addition to the soundtrack of my life and helping my contemplate my own mortality

Mar 26, 2023Deep, dark and ecletic. There are some nostalgic elements in the album that makes this album so special. It derives deep messages about life & death. The death that is part of our lives, that shouldn't be forgotten. This is the Memento mori.

Mar 25, 2023This has everything that once hooked me to DM, all these years after they preserve the spirit and create more magic. Every song here is special!!
-
Mar 25, 2023An utterly cohesive, magnificent electronic masterpiece that references Kraftwerk, Bowie and Moby, while self-referential to the best creations in Depeche Mode history, of which Memento Mori definitely ranks. The best tracks are People Are Good, Never Let Me Go, Before We Drown, Speak To Me, My Cosmos Is Mine, Don't Say You Love Me and My Favourite Stranger.
-
Apr 2, 2023This is their best record since "Ultra" (1997). The boys from Basildon did it yet again. Well done, lads.

Mar 30, 2023It took 3 days to grow fully on me and now it feels like the best album since PTA, I can listen to the whole thing without skipping a bit, Awesome comeback!
-
Mar 31, 2023Impressive. Memento Mori is an album that could have been released in the first 20 years of the band's existence. Being a very, very long time fan, this is the first album to give me the chills in a long time. Definitely at the top of the list with their best albums and their best of the 2000s.

Mar 24, 2023A great album, it’s impressive they can still take so many risks at this stage of their career. Quality of sounds, voices are top notch. They have also struck the perfect balance between exploring new avenues and honor their sound heritage. Melodies, lyrics will be a question of taste, all the rest is remarkable and indisputable

Mar 24, 2023Excelente regreso a lo grande con Memento Mori! la producción es genial y la voz de Dave Gahan suena fresca como nunca. Disco con sonido propio. El mejor desde Playing the Angel, o quizás desde Ultra.
-

May 9, 2023An interesting addition to the already classic discography of this band. It might not rise the attention of new generations, but will prove their style and strength their skills to experiment within their own perception of the world and music. This is Depeche Mode staying on a safe place, that is good enough.
-
May 10, 2023Best album of Depeche Modefrom over 20 years by now.
A mix of what they did in all their career without never been banal or repetitive. Really love it and a must listen to it. -

Mar 31, 2023While much of Memento Mori is thoughtful, and some of it visits the dark side, there is a great deal of positivity underpinning Depeche Mode’s work as a duo.
-
Mar 30, 2023Like the Seventh Seal, Memento Mori raises questions but never brings resolution. ... I It is a testament to their continued relevance and the unexpected wonder in remembering our shared condition.
-
Mar 29, 2023Lavish production disguises thin songwriting on a few tracks, but overall this voluptuous sonic feast feels like a fitting epitaph to departed friends. [Jun 2023, p.72]
