Legacy

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.

Legacy is Sony Music Entertainment's catalog and reissue label. It was introduced by Columbia Records in 1960 for historical recordings. In 1990, CBS Records relaunched Legacy for reissues and repackaged releases. Since then, it has been used by CBS's successors. The label, sometimes indicated as "Legacy Recordings," is known for its extensive collection of *historical recordings* and *reissued albums*. With a focus on preserving the rich musical heritage of various artists and performers, Legacy offers music enthusiasts an opportunity to explore timeless classics and rediscover iconic sounds from the past.

Back In Stock

Black Celebration is the fifth studio album by Depeche Mode, originally released on 17th March, 1986 by Mute Records.

Black Celebration is the album where Depeche Mode finally came of age. The innocent synth pop of youth was suddenly engulfed in a dark perverse world of bleak atmospherics and seedy lust. The Basildon boys had given up the Friday nights in local Youth Clubs for fetish clubs in Berlin.
