'Memento Mori' the album
The band's album was released in March 2023, and Martin Gore said of the album: "We started work on this project early in the pandemic, and its themes were directly inspired by that time.
"After Fletch’s passing (keyboardist and founding member Andy Fletcher died in May 2022), we decided to continue as we’re sure this is what he would have wanted, and that has really given the project an extra level of meaning."
Singer Dave Gahan adds: "Fletch would have loved this album. We’re really looking forward to sharing it with you soon, and we can’t wait to present it to you live at the shows next year."
The 'Memento Mori' Tour is Depeche Mode’s 19th tour and their first in over five years. The band’s most recent outing, the 2017-2018 Global Spirit Tour was its longest to date and was one of the year’s highest-grossing tours, with the band playing to more than 3 million fans over the course of 130 shows across Europe and North America.
