# VCMG – First Listen: The new album ‘Ssss’ by Vince Clarke & Martin L. Gore streaming in full
They've seen it all, they've heard it all, and they've been part of
nearly everything musicwise during the last three decades. When **Vince
Clarke** and **Martin L. Gore** recently announced their [comeback][1]
as **VCMG**, it was obvious that they wouldn't be reinventing the wheel
of techno music, but focussing on their own respective roots as well as
industrial and minimal music's essence. Their joint brainchild VCMG was
revived in late 2011, about thirty years after Clarke (of [**Depeche
Mode**][2], **Yazoo**, **Erasure**) and Gore (**Depeche Mode**)
originally started their collaboration.
With their first ever full-length album, VCMG explore straightforward,
dark, and dry as a bone techno music with a backward-looking approach --
but in a rather nostalgic than anachronistic way. ***Ssss*** apparently
is very fitting for big clubs with an industrial look and feel.
Following up on the EPs '[Spock][3]' and 'Single Blip', *Ssss* brings
eight new tracks as well as the EPs title tracks, making Vince Clarke's
and Martin L. Gore's comeback perfect.
Electronic Beats is proud to be premiering the record, which will be out
on March 12th on **Mute Records** -- listen to all VCMG darting their
tongues in and out with *Ssss*'s ten tracks below.
Now let's wait and see what happens with this [new Depeche Mode album
announced for 2013][4].
