Depeche Mode have announced that they will be releasing a brand new album called "Memento Mori" next spring and have announced their first tour in five years to support it.
The tour will be kicking off with North American arena dates beginning in Sacramento on March 23rd and wrapping up on April 14th in New York City at Madison Square Garden.
They will then head across the pond for a European tour that launches in Amsterdam at the Ziggo Dome on May 16th and will conclude on August 11th in Oslo at the Telenor Arena.
Martin Gore said of the forthcoming album, "We started work on this project early in the pandemic, and its themes were directly inspired by that time.
"After Fletch's passing, we decided to continue as we're sure this is what he would have wanted, and that has really given the project an extra level of meaning."
Dave Gahan added, "Fletch would have loved this album. We're really looking forward to sharing it with you soon, and we can't wait to present it to you live at the shows next year."
