Thanks to Alessandro “@ll75” from Brazil for the scans of this CD and for the following confirmed infos: This CD was never released commercially because of problems with the copyrights. The first launch of the CD was planned in 1999 (as “Industrial Songs Of Devotion”), the second launch in 2002, with a different artwork and title (“Celebration & Devotion”). The band “Devotion” is a side-project of “Simbolo” member Martin, with Joel Jr and Franc DeLucca, formed especially for this tribute CD.

Although I already owned all regular releases, I started "seriously" collecting Depeche Mode's releases from all over the world in the late 80s. But when the internet and espacially eBay came up, I wanted to specialise my collection, because with eBay it was not a question of "how to find a rarity?" anymore, but just a question of "who pays the most?". That was the start of my collection of Depeche Mode cover versions.

I really like it when artists create a completely new mood in a cover version. For me, the best covers are very often just unknown tracks on an artist's album, while many tribute compilations are just "sound-a-likes" without own creativity.
