Depeche Mode to release new album ‘Momento Mori’ in March
Depeche Mode will release new album ‘Momento Mori’ on 24th March 2023 via Columbia Records it has been announced.
The album’s first single, ‘Ghosts Again’, is available now and the video can be watched at the top of this article. The band previewed the song last October at a launch event for ‘Momento Mori’.
‘Ghosts Again’ is an instant grat with pre-saves and pre-orders of ‘Memento Mori’, which is available for pre-order now on 2LP vinyl, CD, cassette, and digital.
“To me, ‘Ghosts Again’ just captures this perfect balance of melancholy and joy,” commented Gahan. Gore added, “It’s not often that we record a song that I just don’t get sick of listening to – I’m excited to be able to share it.”
‘Ghosts Again’ has been visually interpreted by longtime Depeche Mode collaborator and ‘Memento Mori’ album cover and artwork designer Anton Corbijn.
‘Memento Mori’ is Depeche Mode’s 15th studio album and its first as a two-piece lineup of Gahan and Gore, following co-founder Andrew “Fletch” Fletcher’s tragic passing in 2022. 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.
The complete track listing for ‘Memento Mori’ is:
My Cosmos Is Mine
Wagging Tongue
Ghosts Again
Don’t Say You Love Me
My Favourite Stranger
Soul With Me
Caroline’s Monkey
Before We Drown
People Are Good
Always You
Never Let Me Go
Speak To Me
As previously announced, The Memento Mori Tour will coincide with the album’s release. The Live Nation-presented tour — Depeche Mode’’s first in over five years and 19th overall — kicks off on 23rd March with a special, limited series of North American arena dates featuring stops at New York’s Madison Square Garden, Chicago’s United Center, Los Angeles’ Kia Forum and Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena, among others.
