Depeche Mode are releasing a new documentary film M alongside a traditional concert film (and live album), Memento Mori:Mexico City, together in two special 2CD+2blu-ray and 2CD+2DVD packages.
M is by Mexican filmmaker Fernando Frías and is described as “a cinematic journey into the heart of Mexican culture’s relationship with death, framed by riveting live performances from Depeche Mode during their Memento Mori tour”. The film blends concert footage with “interpretive interstitials” and archive material. This film is also getting a limited theatrical release.
2CD+2Blu-ray edition of M/Memento Mori: Mexico City
Memento Mori: Mexico City is a full-length concert film of over two hours (also directed by Fernando Frías) featuring the Mexico City shows in 2023 where Depeche Mode played for more than 200,000 fans.
The four disc packages feature M on the first blu-ray (or DVD), the concert film on the second blu-ray (or DVD) and then a live album across two CDs which is the soundtrack to the Mexico City concert film.
A major ‘carrot’ with this live album is that it tacks on four previously unreleased studio recordings from the Memento Mori Sessions, at the end. These songs are called ‘Survive’, ‘Life 2.0’, ‘Give Yourself To me and In The End’.
If you don’t want any of the video formats, the live album (with those four new studio tracks) is available as a standalone 2CD or as a 4LP set, the latter available on various coloured editions.
M and Memento Mori: Mexico City will be released on 5 December 2025 via Sony.
