David Gahan, Lead Vocalist
Martin Gore, Primary Songwriter, Vocals, Guitars, Keyboards.
Andrew Fletcher, Management, Occasional Keyboards
Alan Wilder, Producer, Keyboards, Drums, Vocals

They formed in 1981, as a Underground New Wave Group, they rose to fame when they released 2 singles in 1984(People Are People, Master And Servant) and were aquired by Sire Records shortly after. In 1991 they were voted most popular on MTV's Most Wanted Bands of the 80's. Depeche Mode started having trouble when Alan Wilder left in 1995, they released 5 singles from 1997 to 1998 then getting dropped by Sire Records. In 2001, they would be picked up by Reprise/Mute Records and would begin creating music again. It is rumored that Playing the Angel will be their second to last record.

The band responsible for making goth/synth pop accessible, not by making it by any means 'accessible' but just really releasing well-crafted music that was filled with a beautiful emotion... Gore's music and Gahan's vocals are worthy of praise.

The best band ever.

a band who's first song was released in 1981. depeche mode was part of the new wave scene, breaking into the synth pop genre (now known as "the kings of synth pop") and becoming its kings. Depeche Mode went into the 90's making their fans wiery with their release of Songs of Faith and Devotion, and a split up was almost eminent. 1997's ULTRA was the bands return to fame with the hits "It's No Good" and "Useless". Everyone should buy Depeche Mode's The Singles 86-98 and 81-85, to see the true work of an awesome band.

Depeche Mode is the name of an English Synth pop band.
The literal translation of Depeche Mode is "Fast Fashion," but the name of the French magazine that they took it from meant "Fashion Dispatch."

A superlative synth band that started in the 80's New Wave era. Their first release was Speak & Spell, which was mostly authored by ex-band member Vince Clark. He left the group to form Yaz, leaving Martin L. Gore to become Depeche Mode's main songwriter for their second and future releases. That is until 2005's Playing the Angel, which had three songs written by lead singer Dave Gahan.

Awesome band with a lot of hits, and rightfully so. Their songs range from the bright, poppy sound of Just Can't Get Enough or New Life to the dark, dreary sound of Fly on the Windscreen or Black Celebration
