 moreOriginally a product of Britain's new romantic movement, Depeche Mode got
their start in 1976, when Basildon, England-based keyboardists Vince Clarke and
Andy Fletcher first teamed to form the group No Romance in China. The band
proved short-lived, and by 1979 Clarke had formed French Look, another duo
featuring guitarist/keyboardist Martin Gore; Fletcher soon signed on, and the
group rechristened themselves Composition of Sound. Initially, Clarke handled
vocal chores, but in 1980 singer David Gahan was brought in to complete the
lineup. After one final name change to Depeche Mode, the quartet jettisoned all
instruments excluding their synthesizers, honing a slick, techno-based sound to
showcase Clarke's catchy melodies.

After building a following on the London club scene, Depeche Mode made their
debut in 1980 with "Photographic," a track included on the Some Bizzare Album
label compilation. After signing to Mute Records, they issued "Dreaming of Me"
in early 1981; while neither the single nor its follow-up, "New Life," caused
much of a stir, their third effort, "Just Can't Get Enough," became a Top Ten
U.K. hit, and their 1981 debut LP, Speak and Spell, was also a success. Just as
Depeche Mode appeared poised for a major commercial breakthrough, however,
principal songwriter Clarke abruptly exited to form Yazoo with singer Alison
Moyet, leaving the group's future in grave doubt.

As Gore grabbed the band's songwriting reins, the remaining trio recruited
keyboardist Alan Wilder to fill the technological void created by Clarke's
departure. While 1982's A Broken Frame deviated only slightly from Depeche
Mode's earlier work, Gore's ominous songs grew more assured and sophisticated by
the time of 1983's Construction Time Again. Some Great Reward, issued the
following year, was their artistic and commercial breakthrough, as Gore's dark,
kinky preoccupations with spiritual doubt ("Blasphemous Rumours") and
psychosexual manipulation ("Master and Servant") came to the fore; the
egalitarian single "People Are People" was a major hit on both sides of the
Atlantic and typified the music's turn toward more industrial textures.

Released in 1986, the atmospheric Black Celebration continued the trend toward
grim melancholy and further established the group as a commercial force; it
eventually sold over 500,000 copies in the U.S., which earned it gold status.
Released in 1987, Music for the Masses, featuring three Hot 100 singles in
"Strangelove," "Never Let Me Down Again," and "Behind the Wheel," propelled the
group into the mainstream. The album would sell over a million copies in the
U.S. alone. A subsequent sold-out tour yielded the 1989 double-live set 101.
Recorded at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California, it was accompanied by a
concert film directed by the legendary D.A. Pennebaker.

With the alternative music boom of the early '90s, Depeche Mode emerged as one
of the world's most popular acts. The triple-platinum Violator, released in
1990, was a Top Ten smash that spawned the hits "Personal Jesus" (a number eight
single), "Enjoy the Silence," "Policy of Truth," and "World in My Eyes." Riding
the success of Violator, their 1993 LP Songs of Faith and Devotion -- featuring
a significant change in its heavy use of electric guitars -- became the band's
first to enter the charts at number one in the U.K. and U.S. Influenced by the
burgeoning grunge sounds of Soundgarden and Nirvana, the Flood-produced effort
featured the singles "I Feel You" and "Walking in My Shoes." However, at the
peak of its success, the group began to unravel, beginning with Wilder's 1995
exit. Gahan attempted to take his own life and later entered a drug
rehabilitation clinic to battle an addiction to heroin.

After a four-year hiatus, Depeche Mode continued onward as a trio and released
1997's Ultra, which featured the Tim Simenon-produced hits "Barrel of a Gun" and
"It's No Good." A year later, the band embarked on a tour in support of their
newly released hits album, The Singles 86>98. Depeche Mode played 64 shows in 18
countries for over one million fans. Each member took considerable time off
after the tour's completion, and Depeche Mode would not regroup for another
three years.

Exciter, the band's follow-up to Ultra, was released in 2001. With LFO's Mark
Bell at the helm, the set featured a more experimental and minimalist electronic
feel, heard on singles such as "Dream On" and "I Feel Loved." Two years later,
Gahan issued his debut solo album, the dark and sultry Paper Monsters. Gore also
followed suit by issuing the all-covers Counterfeit², a full-length sequel to
his similarly themed 1989 EP. After supporting their solo work with respective
tours of the U.S. and Europe, the bandmembers soon regrouped to record another
album.

Kicking off a revived late era, their 11th album, Playing the Angel, was a Top
Ten hit upon its release in October 2005. Produced by Ben Hillier (Doves, Blur,
U2, Elbow) and studded with singles like "Precious" and "John the Revelator," it
topped the album charts in 18 countries and went multi-platinum and/or gold in
20 markets. Depeche Mode went on to play for more than two-and-a-half-million
fans worldwide, and the 2006 video release Touring the Angel: Live in Milan
captured one of the band's greatest shows. After another Gahan solo effort
(2007's Hourglass), the trio returned to the studio with Hillier to cap the
decade with 2009's Sounds of the Universe.

Depeche Mode ushered in the 2010s with their 13th studio effort, Delta Machine,
which completed a trilogy of Hillier-produced albums. Mixed by longtime Depeche
associate Flood, Delta Machine debuted at number two in the U.K. and peaked at
number six on the U.S. Billboard 200. The concert film and album Live in Berlin
(directed by Anton Corbijn from a late-2013 show) followed in November 2014.

The band returned in early 2017 with their 14th studio effort, Spirit. The
album's material was largely inspired by the outcome of the 2016 U.S.
presidential election and was produced by Simian Mobile Disco's James Ford
(Foals, Arctic Monkeys). Buoyed by the single "Where's the Revolution," Spirit
debuted at number five on the Billboard 200. They promoted the album with a
massive international tour -- their longest trek to date -- that kept them on
the road until 2018. A commemorative tour documentary film, the Corbijn-helmed
Spirits in the Forest, debuted onscreen in November 2019 and was later released
alongside the concert album LiVE SPiRiTS.

In 2020, at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns, Depeche Mode were
honored as inductees to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame alongside Nine Inch
Nails, T. Rex, and others. A week after that news was announced, they released a
massive career retrospective box set, MODE, that collected all 14 studio albums
(complete with redesigned artwork) as well as four discs' worth of non-album
singles, B-sides, and bonus tracks. The minimalist package also contained a
228-page lyric and photo book. As the pandemic continued, the band got to work
on their next album, the death- and mortality-focused Memento Mori. Before they
could enter the studio to record, Fletcher unexpectedly passed away in May 2022
at the age of 60. Rather than disbanding, the now-duo of Gore and Gahan carried
on, releasing the bittersweet single "Ghosts Again" in February 2023. The full
album arrived that March, once again with Ford as co-producer, alongside Marta
Salogni (Björk), and with Richard Butler (Psychedelic Furs) as co-writer on a
handful of tracks. The album was a global success, topping a number of charts
around the world while reaching number two in the U.K. and 14 in the U.S. The
album was supported by a world tour that saw the group perform 112 shows to
millions of fans, later immortalized by the film Depeche Mode: M. Directed by
Fernando Frias (I'm No Longer Here), the movie was filmed in September 2023 at
Mexico City's Foro Sol Stadium and released in theaters in 2025. © Neil Z.
