Depeche Mode will be coming back next year with a brand new album called Memento Mori. In addition to this, they’ve announced a massive world tour that’ll see them play more than 20 different countries across North America and Europe in 2023.

Due out in March 2023, Memento Mori marks Depeche Mode’s 15th album to date and first since the passing of founding member Andy Fletcher. 

“We started work on this project early in the pandemic, and its themes were directly inspired by that time,” Depeche Mode’s Martin Gore explained in a statement. “After Fletch’s passing, we decided to continue as we’re sure this is what he would have wanted, and that has really given the project an extra level of meaning.”

“Fletch would have loved this album,” Dave Gahan added. “We’re really looking forward to sharing it with you soon, and we can’t wait to present it to you live at the shows next year.”

Depeche Mode’s supporting world tour begins with a leg of North American shows in March and April, including dates at Los Angeles’ Kia Forum, Chicago’s United Center, and New York’s Madison Square Garden. Beginning in May, the band will then embark on an extensive run of European stadium shows that take place through the middle of August. Additionally, Depeche Mode will headline Primavera Sound’s festivals in both Barcelona and Madrid. Check out the full list of dates below.

Ed Sheeran has announced a handful of North American tour dates for 2023, marking the UK pop star’s first trek across the continent in five years. It’s in support of his latest album, 2021’s ‘=‘ and will also hear him play songs from his back catalog. Khalid, Russ, Dylan, Rosa Linn, Cat Burns, and Maisie Peters are joining him as supporting acts.

“+ – = ÷ x Tour” — pronounced “The Mathematics Tour” — kicks off on May 6th at Arlington, Texas’ AT&T Stadium. Sheeran will then hit stadiums across North America including Atlanta, Toronto, Nashville, Chicago, Minneapolis, Vancouver, and Las Vegas before wrapping up at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California on September 23rd.

In other news, Sheeran will enter his third set of court proceedings over his songwriting, with the musician set to face a jury trial following a suit from a stakeholder in the estate of Marvin Gaye‘s co-writer.

The ruling came last month (September 29) from Judge Louis Stanton, a senior district judge for the Southern District of New York. Per Billboard, the case will determine whether Sheeran’s hit single ‘Thinking Out Loud’ is in breach of copyright due to its similarities with Gaye’s 1973 single ‘Let’s Get It On’.

The suit came from Structured Asset Sales, a company that owns a stake in the copyrights of the estate of Ed Townsend – a co-writer on ‘Let’s Get It On’. It was originally filed back in 2016, with a decision regarding jury involvement coming in 2019.

Having released their newest album, Will of the People, Muse have announced the 2023 “Will of the People Tour.” Evanescence will accompany the band as a special guest.

The 20-date North American trek will begin in February in Chicago, Illinois, and Muse will definitely be travelling for a while. After a stop in Minneapolis, Muse will end the month in Austin, and they’ll follow a Texas jaunt with a brief stop in Columbus, Ohio, before continuing on to Toronto, Quebec City, and Montreal. The band will play New York and Philadelphia in the middle of March, then pick back up in Glendale, Arizona in April for a run along on the west coast.

Besides that, Muse have several dates remaining on their previously announced 2022-2023 tour, including North American stops in October and European stops in May and June. 

On 13 January 2022, Muse released the single “Won’t Stand Down”, which marked a return to the band’s heavier early sound. Muse’s ninth album, Will of the People, was released on August 26, 2022. 

The goal of the album, ever since ideas for it arose in late 2019, was that it would explore current events in the world. Since a lot has happened during these years, it, thematically, explores everything from Black Lives Matter protests, to the Covid-19 pandemic and the lockdowns, to the 2021 Capitol riots, and much more.

According to Muse, “Will of the People was created in Los Angeles and London and is influenced by increasing uncertainty and instability in the world. A pandemic, new wars in Europe, massive protests & riots, an attempted insurrection, Western democracy wavering, rising authoritarianism, wildfires and natural disasters and the destabilisation of the global order all informed Will of the People. It has been a worrying and scary time for all of us as the Western empire and the natural world, which we have cradled us for so long are genuinely threatened. This album is a personal navigation through those fears and preparation for what comes next.”

Death Cab for Cutie recently kicked off the North American leg of their tour in support of the new album Asphalt Meadows. Now, the band is committing to spending even more time on the road, as they announced more U.S. shows in January and February 2023, as well as the UK and European ones in March 2023.

Throughout their tour, Death Cab for Cutie will be joined by an array of special guests. Thao, Real Estate, Yo La Tengo, Momma, Chong the Nomad, and Slow Pulp will all take turns as tour companions at various stops.

The band will start off the new year with January 27th show in Louisville, Kentucky. The new stint will primarily cover the southeastern US, hitting cities including Orlando, Birmingham, Little Rock, and Dallas before wrapping up in Nashville on February 14th. Then on March 1st, the band will begin trek through Europe by playing Milan, finally wrapping up on March 29th at London’s Royal Albert Hall.  

Asphalt Meadows, Death Cab’s proper follow-up to 2018’s Thank You For Today, is out now, and the band have celebrated the release with performances on Colbert and Kimmel.

“I think that at the at the core of this band — and this includes people who are no longer in the band — we all care about each other’s well-being, and we’re each other’s biggest fan,” said vocalist Ben Gibbard. “I think I can say for everybody in the band that this is exactly what we always wanted to do. This is the band we always wanted to be in. The older I get, the longer we do this, the more fortunate and grateful I am for the fact that we get to do it at all, but especially at the level that we’re able to do it, and that people still care. I still love the music. You don’t always realize that that’s an incredible honor.”
