Martin Gore, born July 23, 1961, is Depeche Mode’s chief songwriter and sonic architect. With Black Celebration, he ushered in the band’s darker, cinematic phase – turning synth-pop into something gothic, industrial, and deeply emotional. Known for his introspective lyrics and live charisma (see 101), Gore remains one of the most influential songwriters in electronic music. A true pioneer of mood and melody.
