Depeche Mode have announced details of their 12th studio effort: Sounds Of The Universe. The album marks the first release under the new exclusive deal with EMI.
Sounds Of The Universe will be available from 20 April (21 in the US), preceded by a single, Wrong, on 6 April. You can see the 13 'standard' tracks below, but according to keyboardist Andy Fletcher, they: "recorded a lot of extra tracks which will be on a deluxe version."
The band's Tour Of The Universe follows on 10 May in Tel Aviv, Israel. It's not really a tour of the whole Universe, but it's pretty damn big all the same.
