Depeche Mode announces venues for North American tour

Depeche Mode has unveiled the venues for this summer's North American leg of its "Tour of the Universe."

The new-wave pioneers begin their North American trek July 24 and are currently scheduled to make stops in 20 cities by earlier September. The itinerary is included below.

The international portion of the jaunt launches May 10 in Tel Aviv, Israel, before heading to Europe for a string of 35 stops. Details for the overseas performances are posted at the band's website.

The British icons are promoting their 12th studio album, "Sounds of the Universe," which hits shelves stateside April 21. The group recently released the video for the effort's first single, "Wrong," on their website, and announced last Tuesday (2/24) that they would be the first artists to participate in the iTunes Pass. Fans who purchase the new album for a slightly higher price through the iTunes Pass option will also be the first to receive exclusive singles, remixes and videos over a set period of time. A Black Light Odyssey Dub remix of another new Depeche Mode track titled "Oh Well" was the first exclusive unveiled.
