Martin Gore, the band’s lead songwriter, and Dave Gahan, the charismatic lead vocalist, accepted the award on behalf of the group, thanking their fans for unwavering support throughout their journey.
In his acceptance speech, Gore reflected on the band’s journey: “We never imagined that Depeche Mode would have the kind of impact we’ve had on music. This award is a testament to the dedication of everyone who has been a part of our journey.”
This honor comes on the heels of the band’s successful global tour promoting their latest album, *Memento Mori*, which debuted to critical acclaim, further cementing Depeche Mode’s place as trailblazers in the world of electronic music.
