90% live concert

Having watched DM live for many many years I didn't know exactly what to expect from this cinema release, would it relate back to 101 and a more reality movie or just a more simple live concert of the MM tour. It was the later and it was very enjoyable!I'm a huge fan so that helps and having seen them live around 30 times only found one negative... you realise we are aging from a fresh faced Gahan when I first seen them live to a fit aging 63 year old. Where have the years gone, and yet some of the songs take me way back!If you like their music you'll enjoy this film and it was actually filmed very well.Thank you for making me smile and sing along but also at the same making me realise Memento Mori is something I am realising more and more in reality.

A reflection on death from a Mexican perspective

Clearly, you have ways of expressing your opinion, both positive and negative. It's how you take things.Even before seeing the film, I knew it was directed by Fernando Frías and that it would be about how he interpreted Depeche Mode and the Memento Mori album and tour (remember that you're going to die), relating it to how Mexican culture views death.That said, I'd like to clarify a few things. DM fans who went to see their hits, after having seen several concerts already filmed, seem to be mistaken in arguing that it's a film that doesn't show all their hits and that it's not a live show, etc.It's true that some songs are left out, that's true. But the reality is that we can see them on the numerous DVDs they released previously. I mean, I love "Walking in My Shoes," but I heard it at several concerts, including Devotional, which is where I like it the most, but the rest of the concert is very good.The most interesting aspect is seeing, through the stories, a perspective on death. How several passages in these stories connect to the song that follows.The problem is the audience that watches the documentary/show thinking they're just going to see a concert and that they only want to hear the hits. They don't understand the deeper concepts, nor do they know what intertextuality is-the relationship between music, literature, technology, and culture in general.

When Music Becomes Religion: Inside Depeche Mode's M

There was never a question about whether I'd go see M, the new Depeche Mode film documenting their journey through Mexico in front of 200,000 fans. For anyone who grew up with 80',New eave, synthpop, it's a no-brainer.The global synth scene is so vibrant today that it sometimes feels like new artists have taken over the stage - yet M is a powerful reminder that Depeche Mode remain one of the greatest bands in the world.Their music still carries that unmistakable mix of pain and poetry, with melodies that seem to come from another planet and an overwhelming charisma that fills every frame of the film. The cinematic experience is nothing short of emotional and immersive; it's a deeply moving journey for both devoted fans and anyone who values pop as an art form.The film rekindles everything that makes Depeche Mode timeless - their raw honesty, sonic depth, and ability to connect across generations.I left the theater thrilled, inspired, and reminded why this band continues to define what powerful, intelligent pop truly means.In one word - spectacular.
