Iconic synthpop band release new single 'Where's The Revolution' on Friday

Depeche Mode will release their new single 'Where's The Revolution' this Friday, February 3, and it will be the first taste of their upcoming 14th studio album, Spirit.

The first new music from the band in four years, the track was teased during their highly publicised press event in Milan last November. Like the rest of the album it was produced by James Ford of Simian Mobile Disco.

As announced at the Milan press event, the new album, which is released on March 17 on Columbia, will be supported by the mammoth Global Spirit Tour, with the first leg seeing the band play to over 1.5 million fans at 34 shows across Europe. It begins on May 5 in Stockholm, with tickets on sale now.

For those who can't wait until Friday, a clip from 'Where's The Revolution' can be heard during the below YouTube teaser trailer, which was first aired during the band's Milan press conference last year. The single's artwork can be found below that also..
