Depeche Mode Logo Pin

This enamel pin is a stylized logo for the legendary English electronic band Depeche Mode. The text "D=P=CH= MOD=" is a shorthand, graphic representation of the band's name that has been featured on various merchandise and fan-made accessories.

The band's name was originally taken from a French fashion magazine, Dépêche mode, which roughly translates to "fashion news" or "fashion dispatch". While it is a common misconception that it means "fast fashion," the name was chosen by lead singer Dave Gahan simply because he thought it sounded cool.
