Some bands are just recession-proof. While the rest of us are probably going to spend our summers hoarding Ramen noodles, British synthpop OGs Depeche Mode will be touring stadiums in Lithuania and Romania.

And they'll also release their 12th album, Sounds of the Universe, on April 21 via Capitol/Mute in the U.S. and April 20 via Mute in Europe. "Wrong", the first single, hits on March 9. [And it's pretty damn good!-- Ed.] We've got the album tracklist now, and it'll be fun to see what, exactly, "Hole to Feed" is about.

Sounds of the Universe:

01 In Chains
02 Hole to Feed
03 Wrong
04 Fragile Tension
05 Little Soul
06 Sympathy
07 Peace
08 Come Back
09 Spacewalker
