Depeche Mode Fans?

[paulj]

Probably my favourite band ever. Any other fans here?
There is a lot of ignorance in relation to them, far too often they are written off as an 80s hasbeen or a bunch of homos (mostly by smelly metallers). Its a shame so many people dont realise what a vibrant and successful band they still are and will continue to be. I can think of very few other new wave era bands that can still fill venues like Madison Square Garden over two nights and the Cure isnt one of them.

Theres a thread in here somewhere on them. Modies unite!
Here's a little sample (Dublin 09) from the gods of electronica that are the Depeche Mode. What a night!

Well that makes two of us at least on here!

Yeah that was an amazing gig, my 27th birthday that night as it happened! Although i thought the Point show in 2006 was even better (and i also prefered the venue as the Point!).

Depeche Mode for the Marquee 2013!!

Heard a bit of it this morning, cracker is right

I think it's a good solid album. As is usually the case. They got a record 12th number 1 in Germany with it.

Think this is the standout track, best since Ultra
