Depeche Mode displays their knack for songwriting on their very first album.

can't stand to see this album so badly rated. otherwise i would give it a four, but now i'm furious, so it's five. kids simply don't get it...

RU mental?

Reading the reviews on this album I must ask the question: Are you mental? (or just born 10 years after me). The first DM album will always be the best and one of the best techno pop albums ever.

C,mon, it's not that bad.

Come on people this album isn,t that bad. I have all of DMs albums including this one and I love all of them.Sure there's the laughable Boys Say Go .But there's the catchy Dreaming of Me and the funny Just Can't Get Enough. I definately would recomme...nd this one if you wan't some good early 80s new wave pop. Beware this is not for those who are deep into Black Celebration, Violator or Music For The Masses. None the less give this album a try. I must admit I still laugh at DM for the dumbest song ever Boys Say Go! But they would improve dramatically after 1983. Read more Less

Un des albums les plus importants de l'époque New Wave du début des années 80 est surement Speak & Spell. Bien sur la naieveté du groupe est presente, la base y est. Des chansons comme Photographic, Just can't get enough,Tora,Tora,Tora,Dre
aming o...f Me et New Life sont des classiques du groupe qui démontre bien la qualité bien supérieur de leurs musiques comparés aux autres groupe de ce temps. Read more Less

BUT!!!

By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jan 19, 2001

Far from their best album - I would give two stars based on it's individual merit - but 4 if one includes it's significance. Anyone trying to claim that this is DMs masterpiece, or their most original is simply trying to come off like they were "firs...t on the bandwagon". Any true fan sees S&S for what it is - a debut album, a stepping stone, a nice first effort. Read more Less

I agree with monab.

Speak & Spell' s just cheap throwaway- pop, with no deep meaning normally offered on a DM- album.
Just like Erasure.
Try every other DM- album first.
