Keep in mind that the guys were also sitting in this room ALL DAY talking with different European journalists, TV people, etc. It's not surprising that after hours and hours of talking about the same stuff over and over again, they might be tired and irritable. Or sick of talking about certain things.
Dave was going thru a rough time during this phase (health/rehab). The whole band was on shaky ground. I think Dave, Martin, & Andy did just fine & as well as they could given the circumstances.
Thats what happens when you get to big for your pants... keep your heads out of the clouds. Getting off Herion is beyond hard...depression, anxiety, health issues...stress...not easy.. glad he got straight. Looks good in Its No Good Video!
Sometimes it seems like they were so selfish about why Alan Wilder left the band. The three of them were doing almost nothing for the band in that period, Dave on drugs, as well as Martin, and Fletch, everybody know he is not a musician at all and the whole work was on Alan's shoulders, and his work was very underrated there! Is not a kids garage band, it's a job even if it's a band and art and fun, and when your partners are totally out of it then is time to make difficult decisions. :(
Алан слишком мягкий,не смог отстоять свои права в группе,что поделать слабый,ведь мог поговорить хотя бы с Мартином об этом и остался бы в группе,с другой стороны в комментариях пишут вот бы Алан вернулся и так далее, надоели
Fletch doing what he does best - talking utter rubbish. It showed very quickly that a band not even Depeche Mode can exist on just a singer, a writer of demos and a no mark who brings nothing creative to the band. They needed Alan Wilder (and I admit he needed Martins demos to polish and shine) but they treated him like dirt and what shocked me was the way they acted as if it was all his fault. In their minds Daves drug addiction, Martins excess alcohol intake and Fletcher doing nothing didn’t cause any problems!
He does! But I must admit he's Said quite a few times he wanted to be a Rock Star, in a Rock Band!! That doesn't mean It probably would've been An Electronic Rock Band for Sure!! Actually I was just thinking about The SOFAD Album!! Couldn't be more Electro Rock!!
@@olevet75 Exactly 👌🏻👌🏻 HAHAHA... They couldn't stick to Synthersizers Forever, or else they wouldn't have evolved... Obviously Synths are the base to Electronic Music but they would've Lost interest not playing other instruments!!
Yeah, they should have remain pure old school synth group and tour in the retro shows like the real purist synth bands like Heaven 17, Blancmange, Bronski Beat etc
When did Dave START the drugs? An Martin? Alcohol? Is he gay or straight? Fletch, I think, had or has depression...Allen prob got fed up when Dave went off deep end!!
A. Clemence they are all straight. Dave kicked drugs in early 1997. Martin quit drinking in the mid-2000s. Andy is fine now. Alan left for a multitude of reasons. Ultimately it was the same reason Vince left. He was interested in expanding beyond a group.
Charles Switzer I know all this now. I investigated. Dave is one of the best vocalists an frontmen ever along with Chester B fr L.P. just wasnt sure about Martin. Still not sure exactly what Fletch does except dance off beat. Martin is better song writer than the guy(forget his nane, not Allen earlier) who left early way early. But some of Martins outfits made u wonder back then which is fine just wondering. ..Dave...sigh..
Since he´s been married twice, I do belive that Martin is straight even though he has been confusing with his outfits in past .... I think he has been experimentig a lot! But always amazing and talented though.

NEAT INTERVIEW... !! + Dave's Emotional Intelligence, Honesty, and Ability to Communicate, are Unique ! Thanks !

Thank you for posting this great interview!
Dave was obviously less patient, but Andy saves the day.
Fantastic people fantastic music for fantastic ears
DM is still so GREAT❣️♥️🎼💫 ✨✨✨✨✨
I’m glad Dave has short hair again nowadays...😘
Dave was going thru a rough time during this phase (health/rehab). The whole band was on shaky ground. I think Dave, Martin, & Andy did just fine & as well as they could given the circumstances.
I like their haircuts: both Dave and Martin.
Good to see Dave clean again (almost)
Amo voce martine muito educadi gosto da5 roupas que você usava era de mais ai Love
merci 👍
It's completely True 👌🏻 that in ULTRA they used the Guitar a lot more than the albums before!! Even so, It's Absolutely Electronic, actually I❣️IT...

Davis is heathy here, and they look really great. He is single here, but not for looong!
DM ❤️
their best look

Exactly!! The missing piece for DM is Recoil. I can't stand Fletcher.
I fully agree.
İts really dissapointing Interview, We all notice how selfish they are, Dave did nothing to get back Alan Wilder...
@@legendsneverdie3756 I love Dave but his ego will not ever let Alan back in the band and I would pay anything to see him back, but it not likely.
@@piscesempress1978 You are right, this is also what i understood, Dave has used this opportunity very well for years...
❤️👍
I do not understand how they can be that much unfair and cruel against Alan Wilder...This Interview clearly shows that Alan Wilder was 100% right...
2:26 LOL
dave looks stoned
@guevaraz101
2:10 Dave got it right away,
pretty cool interview...

5:07 I don't get the joke.
he just knew it was impossible to have him in band
Dave quoted a line from the film 'This is Spinal Tap'

I actually don’t think Dave likes electronic music atall
He does! But I must admit he's Said quite a few times he wanted to be a Rock Star, in a Rock Band!! That doesn't mean It probably would've been An Electronic Rock Band for Sure!! Actually I was just thinking about The SOFAD Album!! Couldn't be more Electro Rock!!
Oh God i just can't stand Fletcher. He is so odd, does not belong there. Martin, Dave and Alan >> a dream trio.
Guitars and drums have ruined the sound of mode
Says no one..
