It's been a minute since we heard from Depeche Mode, but the long-running synthpop institution is finally done with a new album, Sounds of the Universe.
According to a press release, the band recorded the LP in Santa Barbara and New York using tons of vintage synthesizers and drum machines. Dave Gahan's voice is as captivating as ever and Martin Gore's songwriting is still in full form...it serves as foolproof evidence that Depeche Mode has no plans for retirement.
The Deluxe Box Set contains the Sounds Of The Universe album CD, a second disc including brand new bonus tracks and remixes of new songs and a third CD with an exclusive collection of demos, from both the new album and songs from throughout Depeche Mode's career.
The DVD includes three films, the promo video for first single Wrong (directed by Patrick Daughters), the album and five bonus tracks in 5.1 surround sound, plus four songs filmed live in the studio in December 2008.
The two-piece, custom made box also contains two 84-page hardback books, one featuring the lyrics to all the songs from the Sounds Of The Universe sessions, accompanied by exclusive photography by Anton Corbijn and the second contains exclusive and candid studio photography by Daniel Miller, Ben Hillier, Luke Smith and Ferg Peterkin.
Further extras include two enamel badges, a poster, artcards and a certificate of authenticity.
