After a vague reference regarding its release, the Brit boys in Depeche Mode have confirmed that Sounds Of The Universe, their twelfth studio album and follow-up to 2005’s Playing The Angel, will arrive April 21 via Capitol.

The new record also reunites the Mode with Angel producer Ben Hiller (Elbow, Blur, Doves).A full tracklisting for the album has yet to be announced, but a statement confirms its first single will be “Wrong.” Other song titles include “Jezebel,” “In Chains,” and “Hole to Feed.”
