    How’s this for a good start to the month of March,   a new track from   Depeche Mode’s forth coming album: Sounds of   the Universe.   This track is dark and more minimal in sound compared to their single, “Wrong”.

    Depeche Mode – Hole To Feed

    UPDATE: This is apparently a demo of “Hole To Feed”, read the comment attached to this post for more details.

    Lyrics to Hole to Feed:

    We are here
    We can love
    We share something
    I’m sure
    That you’ll mean the world to me
    When you get
    What you need
    It’s no way of knowing
    What you get
    Is another hole to feed

    Your name was the one that was always chosen
    Your words and the kindness that set me free
    Words can leave you broken inside
    You’ll have to decide
    I’m hanging onto my pride

    We are here
    We can love
    We share something
    I’m sure
    That you’ll mean the world to me
    The shame as a hole that has kept us frozen
    You open my eyes to the world I could believe

    This world has left me broken inside
    I’ll have to decide
    I’m hanging onto my pride
    Words can leave you broken inside
    You’ll have to decide
    I’m hanging onto my pride

    Jamie Woon – Wayfaring Stranger (Burial Remix)

    Lryics:

    I am a poor wayfaring stranger
    A-trav’ling through this world of woe.
    But there’s no sickness, toil or danger
    In that bright world to which I go.
    I’m going home to see my mother
    I’m going there no more to roam;
    I’m just a-going over Jordan
    I’m just a-going over home.

    I know dark clouds will gather ’round me
    I know my way is rough and steep;
    But beauteous fields lie just beyond me
    Where souls redeemed their vigil keep.
    I’m going there to meet my mother
    She said she’d meet me when I come
    I’m just a-going over Jordan
    I’m just a-going over home.
    I want to wear a crown of glory
    When I get home to that bright land
    I want to shout Salvation’s story
    In concert with that bloodwashed band.
    I’m going there to meet my Saviour
    To sing His praises forevermore
    I’m only going over Jordan
    I’m only going over home
