Depeche Mode’s Dave Gahan announced his covers album “Imposter” earlier this week.

The record also includes covers of songs by PJ Harvey, Mark Lanegan, Neil Young, Bob Dylan and more. “When I listen to other people’s voices and songs—more importantly the way they sing them and interpret the words—I feel at home,” Dave Gahan confesses. “I identify with it. It comforts me more than anything else. There’s not one performer on the record who I haven’t been moved by.” He adds, “I know we made something special, and I hope other people feel that and it takes them on a little kind of trip—especially people who love music and have for years.”.
