Depeche Mode have shared the first single from their 15th studio album.
With 'Memento Mori' due out on March 24 via Columbia Records, the band, which now comprises just Dave Gahan and Martin Gore, have released Ghosts Again, a synth-rock track that offers a slightly brighter edge melodically than their previous material.
Frontman Gahan commented: "To me, Ghosts Again just captures this perfect balance of melancholy and joy."
Songwriter Gore added: "It’s not often that we record a song that I just don’t get sick of listening to – I’m excited to be able to share it."

The follow-up to 2017's 'Spirit' was produced by James Ford and Marta Salogni, and marks Depeche Mode's first full-length release since keyboardist Andy Fletcher's death.
The band will embark on The Memento Mori Tour across North America in March, with an extensive UK and European leg beginning later in the spring, which includes a show at London's Twickenham Stadium and Dublin's Malahide Castle in June.
