Dave Gahan said in a TV interview that Memento Mori would probably be the band's last album.
He doesn't think they should continue to be called Depeche Mode without their friend Andy Fletcher.😐

every tour of DM could be the last one - since 1993 .
What will not happen: DM will not announce a farewell tour. Maybe this is the last time on stage for them or we get exciting information in 3-5 years again...
Do they have the right to use the name Depeche Mode without Andy Fletcher? Can they continue to make albums and play concerts?
I imagine that the band name belongs to the three members of the group....
Then they would have had to change their name already in 1981 when Vince left, cause he was a founding member, too.
Yes, but when he left the band he took the necessary steps, by breaking his contract ...
But Andy Fletcher died suddenly after signing for the Memento Mori album and tour.
If Depeche Mode want to sign for a new album and tour, the record company needs the three signatures of the band members. The band's manager can speak on behalf of the band, but he doesn't have the authorization to sign on behalf of the band, or any of its members....
The band Queen, for example
No longer allowed to call themselves Queen since Freddy Mercury died (he can no longer sign contracts), they have changed their name to Queen and Adam Lamber, playing only the queen's hits.😐
I have no idea about such legal procedures. But in a DM forum it was mentioned that Andy's widow is now registered for the tour (instead of Andy).
I would like to find this and post it here, but I can't find it anymore.
Vince also played with Alison Moyet as Yazoo (or Yaz in the US).
Jolinar thanks for the info, i didn't Know...😐
Ich nehme mal diesen Beitrag.
Da hat jemand mit AI ein "neues" Depeche Mode Lied kreiert:
I asked #Udio to make a #DepecheMode song and here's what happened! (youtube.com)
Die Vocals klingen wie Dave Gahan.
ME schreibt: Sorry, aber dieser KI-Song hat den Depeche-Mode-Code geknackt - Musikexpress
Kriegen wir jetzt bald unseren nie erschiedenen Memorial Beach Nachfgolger?
