Yay!

I'm something of a fan, although I lost interest after Songs of Faith & Devotion. I saw them on that tour, and Violator. Excellent band. I prefer their post Vince Clarke stuff, which most of it.
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

Vince Clarke is only on their debut. 
He left and formed Yazoo soon after.

The original early 1980's line-up of Depeche Mode, with Vince Clarke sporting a typical New Romantic hairdo of the time, although he probably regrets dressing like that now. Smile

^ Thanks! I don't know much about Depeche Mode, as you've probably noticed, but when it comes to Synth-Pop generally, I Just Can't Get Enough of it. Smile

I love those New Wave 1980's hairstyles, but Robert Smith of The Cure looks more like someone's wicked granny now. Smile

Yikes, maybe time to drop the make up.
And while I'm name-dropping The Cure's drummer is my wife's cousin.
