With a European tour already announced, Depeche Mode are ramping up to unveil North American dates in support of their upcoming 14th studio album, Spirit — and they’re asking fans to reserve “a spot in line” for an upcoming ticket presale, then work to promote in order to move up in line.

Fishbone, long-running masters of the genre mashup, stopped by Seattle’s KEXP radio station just two days after the election last fall to perform a four-song, 30-minute in-studio session.

The Pixies this morning nearly doubled the length of their North American tour in support of last year’s Head Carrier, revealing 19 new dates this September and October to supplement the already announced 23-date run in April and May. Plus, they added a new Baltimore show on May 14.

Reunited shoegaze legends Ride today debuted their first new music in 21 years, releasing the song “Charm Assault” that presumably is a taste of the band’s as-yet-announced fifth studio album, which is expected out sometime this summer.

The Dream Syndicate plans to release its first new album in 29 years, a collection that bandleader Steve Wynn has revealed will feature a guest vocal by founding bassist Kendra Smith — who has sat out the ongoing reunion, but agreed to appear on a song Wynn calls “the perfect coda to the record.”
