Barrel Of A Gun. Depeche Mode. Produced by Tim Simenon. Barrel Of A Gun Lyrics. Do you mean this horny creep Set upon weary feet Who looks in need of sleep That doesn't come. This twisted, tortured mess This bed of sinfulness Who's longing for some rest And feeling numb. Those two years when we were making that album and I had to go back and forth to court to prove to the judge that I’d stayed clean, it gave me this time to suddenly realize, ‘Oh, I can do this, I can crawl my way back, I can get better. And I do want to be here.

This song was written by Depeche Mode mastermind Martin Gore, but travails of lead singer Dave Gahan were certainly an inspiration. The song describes a torment and descent into madness that leaves him "staring down the barrel of a gu. In the early '90s, Gahan developed a nasty drug habit while embracing rock star excess. After a failed suicide attempt in 1995, he began work with the band on the Ultra album, but in May 1996 he nearly died after overdosing on cocaine and heroin in a Los Angeles hotel room, which halted work on the album. Gahan was charged with drug possession,. Speaking about "Barrel of a Gun" in a 2017 interview with Entertainment Weekly, he said: "It really describes the way I felt at that time: This creature that was barely existing, but somehow still thought he had it going on.

As it turned out, no worries - another massive, epochal slam in the vein of songs like "Never Let Me Down Again" and "I Feel You," "Barrel From a Gun" did the business. Tim Simenon's production was note-perfect, combining heavily processed funk guitar, big beats, scratches, and whatever else could be thought appropriate. Arranged behind Gahan's anguished, powerful vocal and some creepy, effective backing vocals, it's simply, perfectly grand. Three remixes of the track appear, two courtesy of English techno outfit Underworld.
