Depeche Mode has finalized the track list for its live CD/DVD "Touring the Angel," due Sept. 26 via Sire/Reprise. The project, which was taped Feb.18-19 in Milan and directed by Blue Leach, will be available as a two-DVD/single-CD set or as a single-DVD package.

"We realize this album is more tuned in to playing live, more so than 'Exciter' or 'Ultra,'" keyboardist Andrew Fletcher told Billboard.com earlier this year of the tour in support of "Playing the Angel," which came out last fall. "People who have seen us say the new songs don't sound misplaced in the set list."

Beyond new album tracks like "Precious," "Suffer Well" and "A Pain That I'm Used To," the first DVD also includes old classics like "Enjoy the Silence", "A Question of Lust" and "Just Can't Get Enough."
