"Stick Enjoy the Silence up your arse" and so forth

in the depeche_mode  community, a lovely and non-pretentious user by the name of synthetikmisery  made a post:

Why do you sheeple, think Violater is their best album?

Black Celebration and Music for the Masses are far better albums, and put them on the map for most of the world along with 101 which was a after effect of Music for the Masses. They went from small venues to huge arenas with the release of Music for the Masses. The work was musical genius, only matched by their live shows from that time.

Violater was filled with radio friendly pop crap, which is quite different than synthpop. When Z100, here in NYC had Enjoy the Silence on heavy rotation, you know DM went wrong somewhere. Money bought them a good album.
The true songs on there are barely mentioned and barely heard.

Stick Enjoy the Silence up your arse and stop being such sheep.

People do not seem to take this label well, the term "coward" is bandied about and the victim card is played.  Probably wouldn't be wanky if synthetikmisery wasn't so keen on taking pot shots at everyone, whee!

ETA: Awww baleeted already :/ Sadly i didn't get a screenshot, shall i just delete this entry?
Son of ETA: The post is back in a more "user friendly" yet strangely f-locked format here (up to you whether it's worth it to join to take a look or not, but the wank train seems to be making a second stop :X)
