Depeche Mode by Anton Corbijn

Since 1986, Dutch master Anton Corbijn’s timeless and brooding aesthetic has cemented Depeche Mode’s reputation as effortlessly cool and cutting edge. With over 500 photographs from Corbijn’s personal archives, some never seen before, as well as stage set designs, sketches, album covers, and personal observations from Corbijn, this volume visually amplifies his stunning impact on the world’s biggest cult band.
In this video, Anton Corbijn presents the Collector’s Edition (No. 201-1,986), each signed by the photographer and Depeche Mode.

For that price, I'd expect one of the band members to deliver the book to me in person.

Where is Vince and Alan signature?

[@tonguepetals]

Exactly. I was going to buy this and then I saw that it was David, Ginger Bitch and Martin only who signed it. Nope. I can only justify paying that price if Alan Wilder signed it. Ginger Bitch’s signature isn’t worth shit.

A book designed only for rich people like Dave or Anton , not for the fans who has been buying their music for the last 40 years and thanks to us they literally shits gold.Really greedy

[@deydododontdedoh.5672]

Wow expensive! Of course it's a very large quality book for the price with rare pictures and genuine band autographs, if I had the money spare I probably would ...but I don't, I'm just a humble slave to a simple job and this is beyond my dreams. Maybe a much lower cost unlimited edition (and maybe a semi limited run with just Anton's signature after all he's the artist that took the pics) I really admire Anton's photo skills/art but this one's for the Uber fans of DM and AC with deep, deep pockets.

[@deydododontdedoh.5672]

[@antunivanovic]

Definitely an object of desire but even more so definitely a slap in the face of many regular fans, this costly exercise of a book showing them where they're at. To an extent, it is understandable that producing such a volume is costly but asking to pay 750 - 1500 GBP for the final product is beyond unscrupulous, regardless of any "limited edition" or "de-luxe" excuses for it.

Ordered and paid ! Now, waiting for the postman... Regarding Vince & Alan, big fan too but.. (spoiler alert) they are NOT in the band anymore.

[@MovieViking]

Well, spoiler alert, one of them the WAS in the band at the time most of these photos were taken and had he not been, the organ demo of Enjoy the Silence would have been the final version, just like today where they gather in a NY loft to record uninspired versions of Martin's demos, and Black Celebration, MFTM and 101 would never have happened...

[@tonguepetals]

Spoiler alert, asshole, the only reason DM ever achieved any success comes down to Alan Wilder’s contributions and I will physically fight anyone that says otherwise. This should have included Alan and Vincent for this obnoxious price. They were members and they should be recognized for that.

[@volkswagentyp3740]

[@zamboni8623]

Yes 750 € is a lot of money for a favorite band unique. There are currently few opportunities for culture, concerts or sports events... Saving - on what / for what?

@@tonguepetals Bien dicho!

[@tonguepetals]

I could justify the price tag if ALL members of Depeche Mode past and present were represented. Idgaf about Ginger Bitch, I want Alan’s contribution recognized and Depeche Mode is now Peh Mode without him. They stopped being DM in 1995. I did buy the non limited edition, but it is still sitting it its box, still wrapped in its plastic. I only bought it for the Wilder years. I won’t be looking at anything past that.
