Depeche Mode The Dark Progression DVD Review by Gary Hill These unauthorized documentaries are always iffy. Typically they can’t use the music or any interviews of the band members. So, you get a lot of talk about all the “hangers on” and “almost weres” from the scene. Well, this one is better than that in that there are some official clips here and some stock interviews with band members. Still there is a definite “on the outskirts” feeling. I’d guess there are better documentaries on the band out there, but I really do like this. I found it fascinating as a casual fan.
