Depeche Mode 'It's No Good' 1997

Depeche Mode

"It's No Good"

Following the Top Five success of 'Barrel Of A Gun', Depeche Mode announce the release of their next single, 'It's No Good'. A haunting dancefloor lament and classic Depeche meditation on unrequited love, 'It's No Good' will be out on March 31 on Mute.

'Barrel Of A Gun' went straight into the UK Top 40 at Number 4, Depeche Mode's highest ever UK chart entry, equalling their highest ever chart position with 1984's 'People Are People'. The single has also gone Top Five throughout Europe, achieving Number 1 status in Italy, Hungary, Spain, Sweden, and the Czech Republic.

'It's No Good' comes with the track 'Slowblow' plus a series of remixes by Hardfloor, Dom T, Speedy J, Darren Price, Motor Bass and Andrea Parker. The single appears on two different CD's and a cassette format. As with 'Barrel Of A Gun', the CD formats will be specially presented.
