According to the liner notes of Speak & Spell, the initial U.S. release wasin November, 1981. DM made their ALBUM debut with S&S. Their first commercial hit single was "Dreaming of Me". Their first U.K. chart success was "New Life" and their first U.S. "underground" hit was " Just Can't Get Enough".
DM formed in 1980 in Basildon, Essex where Fletcher, M. Gore and Vince Clark attended school. After some time together they did away with their Guitar sound, recruited Gahan and became an all electronic band (this would explain the heavy guitar riffs since "Violator").
I do enjoy the existance of DM since my first hearing this album (vinyl LP) back in the early 80's.
I sort of lost track after "Violator" but picked them back up in 2001 enjoying "Ultra" and "Exciter".
DM will forever be on my top 10 list of enjoyable, brilliant musical artists.
