I never thought a band could perfectly combine electronic, post-punk and alternative rock, until I listened to Depeche Mode. One of the best bands of all time!

@cocoblizzard Жыл бұрын

One of the best and most iconic pop band that ever existed.

I'm 14 and I grew up with Depeche Mode thanks to my dad. Last and this year, I went to Depeche Mode concerts and they were magnificent. I'm so happy that I got to see them, sadly, many of us "younger" people don't know this kind of music. I'm thankful to my parents for showing me 80s music and following!

I'm 14 too and I also grew up with depeche mode's music. My parents had some of thier albums and used to play them all the time. I heard one of thier songs recently (personal jesus) and it brought back the memories.

Hardly an 80s band. They started in the 80s but had massive success in the very late 80s and early 90s. I never knew them from the Vince Clark, Speak & Spell days as I'm not in the UK. So much better with Martin Gore taking over songwriting duties. They are simply timeless.

A hugely influential band. Nine Inch Nails, Muse, heck, even Nirvana cited them as musical godfathers. Loved them since the start (I'm a 48 year old Englander) and I saw them at the London Stadium a coupla weeks back. They still carry that immense power and poise that only a very few, special bands have. And Dave Gahan is a total Rock God!
