Depeche Mode | #depechemode
(Martin L. Gore, Dave Gahan, Andrew Fletcher, Vince Clarke, Alan Wilder)
[1980-…], Basildon, Essex, United Kingdom

Depeche Mode are an English electronic band formed in 1980 in Basildon, Essex.

The group’s original line-up consisted of Dave Gahan (lead vocals, occasional songwriter since 2005), Martin Gore (keyboards, guitar, vocals, chief songwriter after 1981), Andy Fletcher (keyboards), and Vince Clarke (keyboards, chief songwriter 1980–81).

Depeche Mode released their debut record in 1981, Speak & Spell, bringing the band onto the British new wave scene. Clarke left the band after the release of the album, leaving the band as a trio to record A Broken Frame, released the following year. Alan Wilder (keyboards, drums, occasional songwriter) officially joined the band in late-1982, replacing Clarke, while Gore took over lead songwriting duties, establishing a line up that would continue for the next thirteen years.

The band’s last albums of the 1980s, Black Celebration and Music for the Masses, established them as a dominant force on the mainstream electronic music scene.

Depeche Mode have had 50 songs in the UK Singles Chart and thirteen top 10 albums in the UK charts, two of which debuted at No. 1.

Depeche Mode have sold over 100 million records worldwide, making them the most commercially successful electronic band and one of the world’s best-selling bands in music history.
