| Depeche Mode - Barrel of a Gun Band: Depeche Mode Tracks: - Barrel of a Gun [Single Version] [Single Version] - Painkiller [Plastikman Mix] [Plastikman Mix] - Barrel of a Gun [Underworld Soft Mix] [Underworld Soft Mix] - Barrel of a Gun [One Inch Punch Mix] [One Inch Punch Mix] - Barrel of a Gun [Underworld Hard Mix] [Underworld Hard Mix] Gets even better with time Yesterday I found this single in my room, and started to think how long had it been since the last time I had listened to it. And remembered how excinting it seemed to me when it was released. I also thought about the song's excellent video, arguably DM's best. <BR>So I listened to it again. And came to undestand that this song, Barrel Of A Gun is even better with time. In 1997 it sounded edgy and strange, a rare mix of strange and disturbing sounds with heavily distorted guitars and vocal noises. Now it seems a rarity, and sadly, the kind of song that right now gets replaced by mediocre tunes like "Dream On".<BR>Also, the Underworld Soft Mix, which is really incredible. It sounds as a cross between DM and Underworld right on, a very interesting take on the song, right there with the Zephyr Mix of In Your Room (or the Jeep Rock Mix of the same song, for that matter).<BR>And you get Painkiller, DM's ultimate instrumental. This seven minute tune is a craft that really knocks you out. If you only buy the best singles, this should be on the top of your list. Painkiller original! If you're a true Depeche Mode fan, you probably have at least two or three remixes of Painkiller in your collection. Get the original. It is outstanding! GOOD SONG BUT... this is another one of those things that makes you ALMOST hate the song cause you hear 10 different versions of it and all of them have the same lyrics repeated over and over again. Not something that gets much (if any) play in my Player though I do still like the original song on the CD.
