.depechemode’s Martin Gore talks to PamelaChelin about the band's forthcoming album and tour, and grieving the loss of bandmate Andy Fletcher
The synth-rockers, whose last record,, was released in 2017, initially set the internet abuzz in August when they posted a photo to Instagram showing Gore and Gahan inside a recording studio, along with the caption “Finding stability in what we know and love, and focusing on what gives life meaning and purpose.”means “Remember you must die,” Gore says it isn’t meant ominously. “I don’t think it’s a morbid title.” he says. “I like to look at it positively, like, ‘Make the most of your life.
Having written the material over the course of the almost two-and-a-half years since the end of 2019, Gore and Gahan finally began recordingin July after whittling down 16 songs to 12. “The pandemic … it’s terrible but it has its blessings,” Gore says. “We had so much time on our hands to write, which is always a good thing, so we ended up with a lot of songs to choose from.” The album was produced by James Ford and Marta Salogni.
Though Gore says no decision has been made, “Ghosts Again” seems to be the strongest candidate for the lead single. “That is the favorite at the moment,” he says. “It’s got such an upbeat feel to it and we’ve listened to it thousands of times and we keep saying we don’t ever get bored with it, so that’s got to be a good thing.”
