Depeche Mode - Sounds of The Universe on the way!

If you know me at all.... you will know that Depeche Mode has been a band with much influence in my life since I was a very young fellow.

Apart from having every commercially released album, single, exclusive, I have rare gems including odd remixes Martin has created, Dave singing a rendition of "Song For Europe" by Roxy Music with John Taylor (Duran Duran) on bass, and odd demos, live shows... etc.

Their new full length album, Sounds Of The Universe is set for release on the 6th of April in Europe and 7th, here stateside. The first single is called "Wrong" and I am not sold on the music yet that I have heard, but this has been similar for the last few albums until I got further into it.


Here is a clip of Martin working out parts for this single.


The band will premiere this song on the 21st at The 2009 Echo Awards in Berlin so I am quite certain that a few hours later, we shall see this on youtube. The single is released worldwide on the 23rd.
