Depeche Mode have been working on their new album for a while now but Dave Gahan is adamant that it is ‘definitely on track’.
Despite frontman Martin Gore working on his VCMG project, the band have still found the time to work on new material. "We've probably got 20 songs demoed," Gore said in an interview with Spin magazine."Some of the songs are in really good shape, some need some work."
The band has been working with Christoffer Berg, who has previously worked with The Knife and Fever Ray. "He's a great musician and has a lot of fantastic ideas," Gahan has said. "He's not afraid to stand up and say, 'I got an idea.' I like that. It's quite intimidating working with a band like ours because you have certain expectations of how it is. A lot are true and some aren't. Martin and I are open to other people's ideas."
Depeche Mode’s target is to finish the album by the end of the year and it will be their first release since 'Sounds of the Universe' in 2009. The band are also said to be planning a 2013 tour.
