Depeche Mode – Tour of the Universe 2009 comes to Valencia!
As it is announced on their official site (www.depechemode.com), Depeche Mode, one the most important bands of the history of music, goes on tour again from May 10th 2009 to February 6th, 2010 offering their new album Sounds of the Universe throughout more than 80 cities around the world.
As with the previous album, Playing the Angel, Dave Gahan has once again written three songs with Christian Eigner and Andrew Phillpott: “Hole to Feed”, “Come Back” and “Miles Away / The Truth Is”. “Spacewalker” and the B-Side “Esque” are instrumentals.
Martin Gore sings the lead of “Jezebel” and the B-side “The Sun and the Moon and the Stars”. The B-side “Oh Well” is the first track ever to be co-written by Gore and Gahan. The album ends with a short hidden instrumental track after “Corrupt”, possibly called Interlude #5, which can be seen as “Wrong (reprise)”.
Entertainment Weekly stated that on Sounds of the Universe, Depeche Mode “still sound genuinely inspired” and Allmusic gave the album a 4 out of 5, concluding: “Sounds of the Universe is a grower, relying on a few listens to fully take effect, but when it does, it shows Depeche Mode are still able to combine pop-hook accessibility and their own take on “roots” music for an electronic age with sonic experimentation and recombination.”
Awarding the album five stars in the The Daily Telegraph, Neil McCormick concluded that the album showed “the imaginative constraints of most guitar-based rock.”
