This week it’s the powerhouse double whammy of Depeche Mode and New Order, flip sides of the same new wave / techno coin.

I talk about their careers, compare & contrast their mix of darkness & light, and explain why they’ll always be linked together in my mind.

Are you a fan of either band? Do you prefer one? Do you remember when you could ONLY be a fan of one or the other? Can you hear their influence on music of the last 20 years? Discuss dammit!

BONUS EPISODE ON VINCE CLARKE!
