This is a photograph of an incredibly young and svelte Dave Gahan, Martin Gore, Vince Clarke and Andy Fletcher—the first incarnation of Depeche Mode—shot in 1981 by Tim Williams. It’s taken from Depeche Mode: Monument, a new book examining the band’s career through an exhaustive collection of rare memorabilia and never before seen photos. At 420 pages long it’s a true completist’s dream, written by journalist Sascha Lange and, of course, Dennis Burmeister, whose collection of Depeche Mode artefacts forms the basis of Electronic Beats’ Depeche Mode Fan Exhibition. We’re offering a first look inside the book, out this week, right here. Want to see for yourself? Then buy your copy here.
