To be fair the last (new) band I liked was formed in 1999, but became more mainstream in 2015.

It's funny watching repeats of Top of the Pops on BBC4 where the pronunciation of their name evolved from:

to

"Depeche Mode".

^^^^ you’ll have a great night ^^^^

I’ve been a DM fan since I bought “See You” on 7” vinyl via mail order in 1982; still have it today

Watched them all over the world since and probably considered a super fan,.

As a live experience, the Devotional tour always sticks in my mind; Dave’s long hair and amazing 70’s vibe clothes, oh how he rocked the fucking house down!

Yes, he was higher then, than the cost of filling your tank with fuel in the UK now, but boy did he sing!

They’re a little formulaic these days, especially live and I’ve never been sure of the “other two”, but they’ve stuck with it and arguably rely on them now since Fletch has gone

Still, devotionally walking in my shoes

Remember them in the 80’s and thinking they’d just be a group that one minute here next gone. So was surprised they did so well but actually listening to their music I shouldn’t have been that surprised.

I remember watching some Hollywood film and ‘a matter of lust’ suddenly played, now it’s an all time favourite.

I know there are a lot of DM purists here, I saw them live a couple of times during the violator tour. If you want to try something to expand on that;

Forced movement are a newish band, they sound similar,

If like me you loved the violator sound, then Camouflage, sensor album. Tracks like lost, and I’ll follow behind, will take you back to that sound.

We also love Alan wilders solo stuff, Recoil, Breath control is a naughty track

Martin gore, counterfeit ep.

But there is still only one DM.

Also nothing to do with DM directly , but we love that synth sound, the Vince Clark plinky

Nation of language, new band but so cool

On Division St, stick with it, Vince Clarke inspired
