Memento Mori is Depeche Mode's 15th studio album and its first as a two-piece line up 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. 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 representing the opening of the newest chapter of a peerless and ongoing legacy.
