Inception and Early Records
Depeche Mode emerged as an organized music force in 1980 when the band members recorded Some Bizzare Album. The band got positive response when they performed in local shows and gigs. Later in the year, the group released many successful singles like Dreaming of Me, New Life and Just Can’t Get Enough. These songs entered the UK charts and encouraged the band to release a full-fledge album.
Their first studio record Speak & Spell came out in November 1981 and was a top ten hit on the UK charts. Despite the mixed reviews from the critics, the album sold well internationally and was certified as Gold in UK. The second album The Broken Fame released in September 1982 and proved be more successful than their debut album. Hit singles coupled with a number of live performances helped the band establish their repute.
The Destined Fame

The following album Some Great Record was launched in 1984 that entered the Billboard 200 and went Platinum in the US. The next two records Black Celebration and Music for the Masses hit the international charts and earned them widespread popularity.
Songs of Faith and Devotion and Ultra were Mode’s first No.1 albums in the UK. Singles like I Feel You and Walking in My Shoes proved to be massive hits with the listeners and also won them many awards. The start of the new century brought more victories in the form of foreign chart-topping albums like Exciter, Playing the Angel and Sounds of the Universe.
