Depeche Mode is an English electronic music band formed in 1980. The group gained popularity with their debut album "Speak & Spell" in 1981 and went on to release groundbreaking albums like "Construction Time Again" and "Some Great Reward." With hits such as "Enjoy the Silence" and "Personal Jesus," they became a dominant force in mainstream electronic music. Despite facing internal tensions, the band continued to create music, releasing successful albums like "Violator" and "Songs of Faith and Devotion." Depeche Mode has sold over 100 million records worldwide, solidifying their status as one of the most commercially successful electronic bands.

The current lineup consists of Martin L. Gore on keyboards, guitar, and vocals, along with lead vocalist Dave Gahan. Former members include Vince Clarke (1980-81), Alan Wilder (1982-95), who contributed keyboards, drums, and backing vocals, and Andrew Fletcher (1980-2022) on keyboards.

Recognized by Q magazine as the most popular electronic band ever known, Depeche Mode's influence earned them a spot on VH1's list of the 100 Greatest Artists Of All Time. With fifty songs in the UK Singles Chart and thirteen top 10 albums in the UK charts, including two No. 1 debuts, Depeche Mode remains one of the world's best-selling music artists.

Reissues

Previously available as individual titles in VHS and Laserdisc formats (now out-of-print and highly collectible),
Strange (1988) and Strange Too (1990) are compilations of the provocative and visionary short films lensed by
master photographer / director Anton Corbijn, in collaboration with Depeche Mode, to create a new visual
iconography for the band and their music.

Available for the first-time in DVD and Blu-ray configurations and as a single collection, Strange/Strange Too
presents 11 Anton Corbijn / Depeche Mode music films, newly restored from original Super 8mm sources, alongside
six previously unseen outtake "vignettes" from the DM archives. When assembling the final edits for Strange and
Strange Too, Corbijn created a visual running order where the individual music videos are perceived as one
continuous film, with additional interstitial content not seen in the original clips.
