O albumu

Izdan je 1987. Značajan je po tome što je to prvi album koji je polučio značajniji uspjeh sastava u SAD-u. Velik su uspjeh požnjeli singlovi Strangelove, Little 15, Behind the wheel a posebice pjesma Never let me down again sa zapaženim spotom kojeg je rezirao Anton Corbijin, inače poznati stilist i redatelj spotova (poznat po suradnji s grupom U2). Ovitak albuma je zanimljivo odabran (na njemu se nalaze kričavo crveni megafoni na stupu usred pustinje). Naziv albuma Music for the masses (muzika za mase) izabran je ironično jer muzika DM-a nikad nije bila komercijalni žanr.
