An electrifying biography about the four Essex lads who became award-winning stadium superstars and champions of synth pop!
Jonathan Miller's groundbreaking book features in-depth interviews with founder member Vince Clarke and producers Gareth Jones and Mark Bell, and contains never-before-seen interviews with the band members themselves.
With additional input from Gary Numan, Howard Jones and Thomas Dolby this is a unique portrait of a band that almost lost control when their lives went off the rails and lead singer Dave Gahan's heroin addiction nearly killed him. In the end Depeche Mode not only survived, they triumphed, racking up a staggering 40 million+ album sales along the way.
This is their amazing story, told in full for the first time.
