The music made by Martin Gore, Dave Gahan and Andrew Fletcher does not just crossgenres but entire generations.The treasure trove of music contained in this digital box set adds up to 644 tracks spanning Depeche Mode'sentire career. All of the band's 11 studio albums are included here, as well as additional tracks and several livecollections reflecting their unbeatable reputation as concert performers. Between them these albums representmore than 40 million sales to date, 14 of them Top Ten hits, plus more than 10 million admissions to theirelectrifying live shows.In addition, this box set includes all 45 of the band’s singles complete with all the B-sides and remixes. Thereare also rarities, these include 10 brand new and previously unreleased rehearsal and acoustic performances,22 rare early live performances plus 42 rare remixes that have either been long deleted or previouslyunavailable. This is the most comprehensive anthology of the band's work ever assembled.With this kind of track record, Depeche Mode clearly have an enduring flair for populist anthems that transcendfashion, era or national borders. But as many of the tracks here testify, they have also been consistent in theirquest for sonic experimentation. One of the first bands to exploit nascent sampling technology over two decadesago, they were also early advocates of the remix long before the late 1980s dance music explosion. Even today,their interest in unusual noises and eclectic collaborators keeps their sound fresh and forward-looking.

Part of the first British wave of electronic pop acts, Depeche Mode formed in Basildon in 1980. With the newminted purity of their 1981 debut *Speak and Spell*, they tapped into the giddy excitement of the post-punksynthesiser boom. But the prolific string of albums they recorded in the decade that followed covered anenormous amount of ground, not just musically but sonically and emotionally too.The sudden departure of founder member Vince Clarke immediately after *Speak And Spell* gave Martin Gorefull expressive rein as the band's new primary songwriter. Thus romantic yearning, sexual obsession and darkhumour increasingly came to dominate landmark albums like *Construction Time Again*, *Some GreatReward* and *Black Celebration*.With new member Alan Wilder on board, the band's sound deepened and widened. By the time they composedthe widescreen sci-fi travelogues of their 1987 album *Music For The Masses*, Depeche Mode were on thebrink of stadium-filling popularity worldwide. Their subsequent world tour culminated in the record-breakingPasadena Rosebowl show that formed the basis for their acclaimed *101* concert film, directed by thelegendary documentary maker D. A. Pennebaker, and a rousing live double album of the same name.In 1990, Depeche Mode staked a strong claim on the new decade with the sleek, state-of-the-art pop dynamicsof *Violator*, an epochal release and still their best-selling album. Massive hit singles including *PersonalJesus* and *Enjoy The Silence* reached out to a whole new generation of fans as the band played to massivecrowds on their marathon World Violation tour.

But rather than repeat the *Violator* formula, they then pressed on into deeper waters, returning in 1993 withthe confessional techno-blues gear-shift that fuelled *Songs of Faith and Devotion*. This album's biting, sinsoaked mood reflected growing friction within the band, aggravated by Dave Gahan's dramatic battles withdrug addiction and a notoriously excessive world tour. Despite these tensions, they still managed to record themeaty 1994 concert album, *Songs of Faith and Devotion Live*.The departure of Alan Wilder soon afterwards seemed to signal serious trouble for Depeche Mode. But after aspell in rehab, Gahan returned and Gore and Fletcher pulled the band back together in the studio. With theboomy, roomy beats and rumbles of their chart-topping 1997 comeback album *Ultra*, the remaining Basildontrio proved rumours of their death had been exaggerated.Kicking off their third decade together, Depeche Mode entered the 21st century by releasing the eclectic musicalpanorama of *Exciter* in 2001. With producer Mark Bell of LFO and Bjork fame helping to shape the album'sinnovative fusion of electronic and acoustic textures, the wide stylistic range within feels almost like anencyclopaedia of Gore's pop passions – from glam rock to disco to techno and beyond. Meanwhile Gahan'svoice soars to strong, soulful new heights.Following a brace of solo projects and a collection of remixes, the band's next studio release was *Playing TheAngel* in 2005. Featuring Dave Gahan's first ever Depeche Mode songwriting credits alongside those ofMartin Gore, this full-blooded beast of an album earned rave reviews and conquered the Top Ten. It wasfollowed by the band's most successful world tour to date.Even after 25 years of triumph and tension, friction and addiction, Depeche Mode continue to push boundariesand break records. This kind of chemistry is more than rare. It is priceless.
