What they are talking about pretty much was what made their music stand out amongst their fellow British synthesizer band peers in the first place.

[@Sixbeats4me]

They have to be one of the world's greatest bands! I saw them in the 80s and never missed a tour in the U.S. Have been my favorite since I was 12 and even more today at 51

[@laurence.MusicAndSights]

Likewise from France. Lyrics, videos to decypher, musical evolution, concerts, charisma, nobody can compare to them. With Alan Wilder, it would have been as good. Miss you Fletch 😢 ❤

[@Tails7212]

Even Aphex Twin wouldn't be what he is without Depeche Mode

[@musiclove4635]

One of things I love about Depeche Mode was the creative process if the early days. Whether it was tossing a rock on the threshold of a patio door, recording the sound of an engine, or shooting fireworks and capturing it on tape and turning it into sometimes unique and magical in the studio. DM pushed the boundaries which paved the way for their success. Sadly after Alan left finding and utilizing those types of sounds became a rhing of the past. Depeche Mode is and will always be my favorite band.

[@laurence.MusicAndSights]

Likewise. Shart analysis of yours . My yt channel is brimming with them. Hooked since 1980 from France 🇫🇷 ❤

[@DxModel219]

Alan Wilder was the sound architect of the band. Miss him in the band.

[@PinkLlamaGrl]

He needs to get over “whatever” and come back now that Fletch is gone.

[@DxModel219]

@@PinkLlamaGrl if only martin and dave would ask

[@musiclove4635]

Same but Dave and Martin's egos wouldn't ever ask him.

[@laurence.MusicAndSights]

Wilder has remixed so many DM s songs and has aged elegantly. So discreet, wise , talented to rework Martin s demos. ❤ Wilder as well

[@heatherframpton9693]

Fascinating! One of my favorite bands from my high school and college days. ❤

[@susanneduscha8139]

Mine too. 🫶

[@attilaborsay5926]

The biggest innovators in the music history, the best band in pop music!!!

[@arfriedman4577]

They have such clever lyrics. My favorite band since they came to usa with people are people.

[@AaronT04]

Greatest band ever

[@hikeeba44]

I've been a devotee for decaaades.

[@cerinicholls6143]

Any chance of putting up the whole thing?

[@TheLavenderLover]

Their sound captivated me at the age of 12-13. It was about 1988 and WOW was I in love by the time I attended my very first concert - 1990 World Violation Tour… oh myyyyy World IN MY EYES live was amazing 🌌💕✨❤️

[@jacobramirez4189]

It's just these two now since Fletch passed. Alan, He left the band long ago, So yeah.

[@Bader1940]

First saw them at Hammersmith Odeon in 1983. Never a day has gone by since when they have not touched me. 🙏

[@miriamhamarova4363]

Dave and Martin☺️☺️ THANKS for Bratislava 😎😎😎😎 !!!! I was so Happy there ...♥️

[@AB-mx9lx]

attended the Las Vegas show this year,,, and will do the San Diego this time...I guess I can't get enough of this band

[@rmr2471]

I saw them on the songs of faith and devotion tour, at the Dean Dome, Chapel Hill North Carolina. Best concert I've ever experienced. 🤗

[@steveconn]

Cold but catchy tunes, that's Depeche.

[@Catlady77777]

Interesteing sounds are everywhere...

[@n-doghansenmand5655]

Still gentlemen

[@groundhog7871]

Ты лутший как моя молодость

[@lorentoy1994]

Luke Burbank interviewing Depeche Mode ??????? I never would have guessed

[@_Sundrugs]

what's the sunglasses?

[@anime_succchhhti1019]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Andy auch forever wie DM

[@rorschachlebowski8464]

Seria muito interessante Vince voltar para gravarem um disco junto com eles 😐👍

[@musiclove4635]

Won't happen. Martin and Vince's styles are too different. It's like hoping for Alan to return. Never will come to fruition.

[@rorschachlebowski8464]

😢😢😢👍

[@RoamTownGirl]

I think you’re so awesome! Thanking for always for always keeping us in the loop on this whole Ivermectin thing!

[@del-marmare1646]

So heartwarming to see grandpa and grandma still at it. Much love ❤

[@quinetastic]

First! ❤ And great interview

[@marcmcfarlane789]

I'm not prepared to make a comment right now to you guys but I want to apologize for my behavior I want to apologize to your fans in Cleveland Ohio rocket Field mortgage house security staff and first and foremost to Depeche mode my behavior was unacceptable God bless you guys I will make a statement at a later date but don't feel bad I saw Peter tosh in Seattle and 1983 I acted the same way and I think he died after that world tour he went back to Jamaica and was murdered

[@PHXsportsfan]

What in the world in this comment about? And it's been a long time since DM played Cleveland...
