Depeche Mode has returned! And, they are touring their arses off this spring and summer in support of their new album, Sounds of the Universe, to be released on April 21 in the US. This (sure to be brilliant) tour includes a stop at local Nissan Pavilion, in Bristow, Virginia (TUE. 7/28). Always one to embrace a bit of strife, DM's international tour begins in Tel Aviv, Israel on May 10th, and ends September 5th in Sunrise, Florida.
Depeche Mode is also the first to sign onto the new iTunes venture called "iTunes Pass," its first foray into anything remotely close to subscription music. In this, fans can periodically snag extra tracks, remixes, and any extra goodies the label or artist decides to make available for an all-inclusive fee for that particular artist. For Depeche Mode, this is perfect for the hordes of hardcore fans (like Lt. Lush), and those who would sell their first born to have front row tickets (*ahem*).
Check out DM's new single, "Wrong," on Myspace Music.In other formidable news, one of my favorite bands, The Helio Sequence, has been signed to open up for Keane on their approaching tour. This includes a stop at the dreadful (but tolerable for this performance) D.A.R. Constitution Hall, here in the District (TUE. 5/19). Do not miss this fantastic 2-piece band whose latest LP, Keep Your Eyes Ahead, was one of the best albums I have heard in years.
