Details about the new Depeche Mode album

Depeche Mode have never made loud statements about upcoming releases. This time, too, the main artists of the Mute label remained silent for two months after announcing the dates for the world tour and the title of the new album "Playing the Angel." Recently, the official site of the band revealed the tracklist for the upcoming album and its design.

So, the new album will include the following tracks:

01 A Pain That I'm Used To
02 John the Revelator
03 Suffer Well
04 The Sinner in Me
05 Precious
06 Macrovision
07 I Want it All
08 Nothing's Impossible
09 Instrospectre
10 Damaged People
11 Lillian
12 The Darkest Star

"I Want It All," "Suffer Well," and "Nothing's Impossible" are written not by the band’s regular songwriter Martin Gore but by vocalist Dave Gahan - the first time this has happened on DM albums. Previously, Dave expressed that he would like to play a bigger role in writing the group’s repertoire.

Additionally, a remix of the song "Precious" has already been made. It was done by DJ Sasha, who pressed the buttons in his favorite program Ableton Live. Listeners on BBC Radio 1 enjoyed "Precious" in his version, as Pete Tong, who got a promo copy of this creation, immediately played it on his show Essential Selection.
