The wait is over: Depeche Mode has released its eagerly anticipated 15th studio album MEMENTO MORI today.  

Early reaction to MEMENTO MORI has been unanimously positive, with The New York Times citing the band’s “exquisite darkness”, Rolling Stone praising the album’s “characteristic musical beauty and lyrical depth” and the Associated Press raving “The music is staring lovingly into the abyss and asking it to love it back… Depeche Mode might be facing their own mortality but their power as musicians stretches into infinity.” The Guardian hailed the return of “the biggest cult band in the world” and lauded the album’s “perfect blend of ominous mood, electronic textures that range from intense to ethereal”, while the NME and Uncut labeled MEMENTO MORI “majestic” and “their most powerful work this century”, respectively.

Produced by James Ford, with additional production work by Marta Salogni, MEMENTO MORI’s gestation took place during the early stages of the COVID pandemic, resulting in themes inspired directly by that period. The album’s 12 tracks chart a vast expanse of moods and textures, from its ominous opening to its closing resolve—running the gamut from paranoia and obsession to catharsis and joy, and hitting myriad points between. 

Having sold more than 100 million records and played to more than 35 million fans worldwide, Depeche Mode remains an ever evolving and singularly influential musical force. An indelible inspiration to fans, critics and artists alike, Depeche Mode continues to forge ahead with the MEMENTO MORI album which represents the opening of the newest chapter of a peerless and ongoing legacy.
