180 GRAM AUDIOPHILE VINYL
GATEFOLD SLEEVE
INSERT

Released in 1997, Ultra proved that Depeche Mode were
not ready to quit yet, with the departure of key member Alan
Wilder fresh in people’s memory. By delivering a strong set
of new songs, Martin Gore, David Gahan and Alan Fletcher
proved that they were still relentlessly on top of their game.
The album reached #5 on the Billboard 200, carried by
strong singles like the album opener ”Barrel Of A Gun”, “It’s
No Good” and “Home”. Having recovered from an almost
fatal overdose, singer David Gahan took to his vocal duties
like there’s no tomorrow. In its darkest times, it almost
looked as if the band would never be the same again or
might have called its quits Depeche Mode are built to last
and Ultra is the ultimate evidence.
