Marsheaux Release 'A Broken Frame' A Tribute To Depeche Mode

Greek electro pop duo Marsheaux (aka Marianthi Melitsi and Sophie Sarigiannidou) have covered Depeche Mode's second ever album release in full as a tribute to one of the most influential groups of modern pop music.

'A Broken Frame' stands as "a tremendous challenge to dare cover it in full", the girls said, “In our minds ‘A Broken Frame’ is the most underestimated Depeche Mode album, it needs to find its fair place in the course of Depeche Mode’s career. When we started recordingthe first demos many said that the whole idea wasn’t good at all but we had faith in it and treated itwith love and respect. We know that it sounds strange to listen to ‘Leave In Silence’ or ‘My SecretGarden’ with female vocals. 

Depeche Mode’s ‘A Broken Frame’ was released in September 1982 and signaled the start of Martin Gore’s songwriting duties after Vince Clarke’s departure from the group. For this exact reason, ‘A Broken Frame’ is widely considered, their ‘first’ original, though it was released just one year after their official debut album ‘Speak And Spell’, an album that carried the songwriting seal of Vince Clarke who left the group to form Yazoo with Alison Moyet. Three singles were released from‘A Broken Frame’prior to the album release – ‘See You’ (January 1982), ‘Meaning Of Love’ (April 1982) and‘Leave In Silence’ (August 1982).

Marsheaux stand gracefully to the performing demands of the songs with a reflective sense when they sing for love’s calls (‘See You’, ‘Meaning Of Love’) as well as with a respect that the darker tracks need when dealing with loss and betrayal (‘Leave In Silence’, ‘My Secret Garden’). They also highlight with a fresh, modern production approach on masterpieces such as ‘Satellite’, ‘Monument’ and even the new romantic instrumental ‘Nothing To Fear’.

The album is available now digitally and will be out on vinyl and CD on February 23 via Undo Records. Get it here.
