The release of a new studio album is business as usual for Depeche Mode,They have finished their European tour and soon are going to kick off the American Tour, but before they do they have a treat for us fans. Right as their North American tour kicks off, Depeche Mode have released their video for their latest single “Should Be Higher.” The song comes from their new album “Delta Machine,” which was released earlier this year. A pyrotechnic backdrop adorns Depeche Mode's live-performance The clip was directed by Anton Corbijn, who's responsible for numerous Depeche Mode videos as well as Nirvana's "Heart-Shaped Box" and Coldplay's "Talk." The song, officially out Sept. 9, marks the third single from "Machine," following "Heaven" and "Soothe My Soul."
The clip shows the band in their live element with Dave Gahan playing the role of the charming front man. Going strong for 33 years, the guys show that they still have the magic and wonderfulness when it comes to performing live. Stunning bright visuals dance behind Gahan as he dances, wiggles, and schmoozes the crowd. The video shows what fans can expect from the band's latest outing. In my opinion Should Be Higher – The vocal risks Gahan takes on “Should Be Higher” are the ones he should be taking more of. There’s a soaring reach to a falsetto in the chorus, anchored by the Gore/Fletcher/Hiller industrial rhythm section – it really works. Despite its yearning tone, this tune is an achievement, capitalizing on the ambition laid out on "Playing the Angel," but not fully realized on "Sounds of the Universe."
