A day before a major press conference, Depeche Mode announced that they will have a new album in the spring which they will support with a European tour followed by one around North America.
The big question is what the band have to announce tomorrow now that the European dates and the fact that an album is coming have hit the press. There are some who are speculating that the band will call it quits after all of this is wrapped up, but it could simply be more information on the album.
The press conference will be streamed live tomorrow at depechemode.com starting at 12:30 PM U.K. time/7:30 AM EDT.
