A metal acetate record, also known as an aluminum acetate record or lacquer disc. These were used primarily in the production of vinyl records. Metal acetate discs are created by coating a metal plate, usually aluminum, with a thin layer of lacquer. This lacquer can then be cut with a recording stylus to create grooves, capturing audio signals.

Metal acetate discs were often used in the mastering process of vinyl records. The audio would be recorded onto these discs, and then the discs would be used to create a metal master, which was further used to press the vinyl records.

These discs were a crucial part of the recording process, allowing for precise audio capture before the final pressing of vinyl records. However, they were not as durable as the final vinyl product and were primarily intended for short-term use in the manufacturing process.

Depeche Mode is a British electronic band formed in Basildon, Essex, in 1980. The band's lineup originally consisted of Dave Gahan (vocals), Martin Gore (keyboards, guitar, vocals), Andy Fletcher (keyboards), and Vince Clarke (keyboards, guitar). Their music is characterized by a dark, atmospheric sound often infused with elements of synth-pop, new wave, and alternative rock.

Throughout their career, Depeche Mode has released numerous critically acclaimed albums, including "Violator," "Music for the Masses," and "Songs of Faith and Devotion." They've also had many hit singles, such as "Enjoy the Silence," "Personal Jesus," and "Just Can't Get Enough."
