As Depeche Mode gear up to release their new concert film ‘Depeche Mode: M’ on October 28th, the band have announced the physical release for both the film and its accompanying live album, Memento Mori: Mexico City, due out on December 5th.

The concert film will be spread across two discs—available in either DVD or Blu-ray format—alongside two CDs. The first disc features the complete Depeche Mode: M film, which blends live performances with archival clips and additional footage showcasing both the band and the culture of Mexico. The second disc, titled Memento Mori: Mexico City, focuses solely on the band’s live performances from their Mexico City shows, presented in full setlist order. Each bundle will also include a copy of the live album.

The Memento Mori: Mexico City live album will be released separately as a two-CD or four-LP vinyl set. Both formats capture more than two hours of music from Depeche Mode’s three-night residency at Foro Sol during their Memento Mori world tour. Fans can also look forward to four unreleased songs from the Memento Mori sessions — “Survive,” “Life 2.0,” “Give Yourself To Me,” and “In the End,” with the latter set to debut as a single on Friday, October 24. Both editions will feature exclusive photographs from the Mexico City performances.

Depeche Mode: M, directed by acclaimed Mexican filmmaker Fernando Frías,  follows Dave Gahan, Martin Gore, and their touring band through three sold-out nights at Foro Sol. Frías interlaces concert footage with scenes capturing Mexico’s culture, with the film also marking Depeche Mode’s first major tour since the passing of founding member Andy Fletcher in 2022.

Dave Gahan said in a press release of the film: “At its core, our new film ‘M’ is about the deep connection between music, culture, and people — and Fernando Frías, who directed and conceived the film, did a beautiful job telling that story that through the lens of Mexican culture and our shows in Mexico City.”

Depeche Mode: M will premiere in select theaters on October 28, while the live album and physical editions of both Depeche Mode: M and Memento Mori: Mexico City will be released on December 5.

Tickets for the film screenings can be found HERE; with preorders for the physical editions are available now.
