Depeche Mode’s Video Singles Collection—a three-DVD anthology containing more than four hours of the British band’s music videos from 1981-2013 (plus two-plus hours of audio commentary)—will be released by Sony on November 11. Video Singles Collection is the first official Depeche Mode archival title to be released under the Sony banner since the company acquired rights to the Depeche Mode catalog in 2015.
The set presents more than three decades’ worth of Depeche Mode’s international hit singles, directed by Julien Temple, Anton Corbijn, D.A. Pennebaker, John Hillcoat and others. (Pre-order is available here.)
Video Singles Collection is the first in a series of band-approved retrospective projects examining Depeche Mode’s career and effect on pop culture and marks the first time that DM’s video singles have been compiled together in a single anthology. The set includes 55 newly restored versions of the essential video singles in the Depeche Mode canon in addition to four rare alternate videos and new commentary on specific individual clips, recorded by members of Depeche Mode especially for this release.
Depeche Mode has released 13 studio albums. Their last album, 2013’s Delta Machine, debuted at the #1 chart spot in 12 countries and was followed by a world tour. Depeche Mode are Andy Fletcher, Dave Gahan and Martin Gore. Alan Wilder was a member from 1982 until 1995. Vince Clarke was a member until 1981.
