Depeche Mode, an English electronic music band, was formed in Basildon, Essex, in 1980. The original lineup included Dave Gahan, Martin Gore, Andy Fletcher, and Vince Clarke, though Clarke left the band after the release of their debut album. The band's music primarily belongs to the synth-pop and electronic genre, though they have explored alternative and rock sounds as well. Depeche Mode gained prominence in the 1980s with albums like "Black Celebration" and "Music for the Masses." Their 1990 album "Violator" is often seen as a turning point, featuring hits like "Enjoy the Silence" and "Personal Jesus." Through the years, they've continued to evolve their sound while maintaining a dedicated fan base. Known for their social and political commentary, the band's lyrics often explore complex human emotions and societal themes. The band name is derived from a French fashion magazine, Dépêche mode, which means "fashion dispatch."
