Depeche Mode Stuns Fans with New Track "In the End"
Renowned band Depeche Mode returns with a fresh track
Ah, New York City! The city that never sleeps played host to a little surprise for the fans of legendary synth-rock band Depeche Mode. At the debut of their concert film "Depeche Mode: M" during the Tribeca Festival, a new, unreleased track titled "In the End" was introduced during the end credits[1]. A recording of the track, approximately three minutes long, was quickly posted on platform X[2].
According to the fan page "depechemode.de," the song is going by that name[2]. Even music publication "Rolling Stone" picked up news on the film screening and the unexpected debut of the new track[3].
Life After the Loss of Fletcher
The film "Depeche Mode: M" captures the spirit of the iconic electronic band's concerts in Mexico City, chronologically following the release of their album "Memento Mori." This was the first album that vocalist Dave Gahan and songwriter Martin Gore released without original member and keyboardist Andy Fletcher, who passed away unexpectedly in May 2022 at the age of 60[4].
During a Q&A session after the screening, Gore confirmed that "In the End" is one of the four tracks recorded for "Memento Mori" that didn't make the cut[3]. With a chuckle, he mentioned that he's unsure what will happen to the other three unreleased tracks[3]. Unfortunately, Sony Records has yet to respond to requests about any upcoming releases from the band[3].
Depeche Mode, famous for their hits such as "Enjoy the Silence," "People Are People," and "Just Can't Get Enough," was established in 1980[1]. Known for their dedicated fanbase, the band has sold over 100 million records worldwide[1]. In 2023, "Memento Mori" was among the top-selling albums of the year in Germany[1].
