Memento Mori – Depeche Mode

Just a stunning album from this long running band to be honest.  The vinyl is gorgeous.  Double vinyl LP pressing. Their 15th studio album and it’s first as a two-piece lineup of Dave Gahan and Martin Gore, following co-founder Andrew “Fletch” Fletcher’s tragic passing in 2022.  The album’s 12 tracks chart a vast expanse of moods and textures, from it’s ominous opening to it’s closing resolve-running the gamut from paranoia and obsession to catharsis and joy, and hitting myriad points between.
