Depeche Mode are an English electronic band formed in Basildon, Essex, in 1980. The group consists of founders Dave Gahan (lead vocals, cosongwriting), Martin Gore (keyboards, guitar, chief songwriting), and Andy Fletcher (keyboards, bass guitar).

The band s last albums of the 1980s, Black Celebration and Music for the Masses, established them as a dominant force within the electronic music scene. A highlight of this era was the band s June 1988 concert at the Pasadena Rose Bowl, where they drew a crowd in excess of 60, 000 people. In the new decade, Depeche Mode released Violator, an international mainstream
