Written in collaboration with the musicians, this biography tells the true story of the band - quirky, funny, extreme and sometimes destructive. It tells the story of the reckless and flamboyant Dave Gahan, the modest and skillful Martin Gore, and the pragmatic and uncompromising Andy Fletcher. Since the 1980s, the famous trio have experienced many difficulties along the way: personal problems, conflicts, the departure of Vince Clarke and Alan Wilder, and other vicissitudes of world fame. Depeche Mode managed to change this world and become the most popular electronic music group he has ever known. And this is their story. "The meticulously researched history of an extraordinary group... truly fascinating."
