This episode is recounted in the Biblical book of Genesis, and spawned the aphorism "playing the angel". Cast out of heaven and forced into the life of a human being, Fletch swore vengeance upon God and set about seeking his revenge in the form of electronic music. He set about assembling the most angsty group of teenagers he could find to exact his revenge upon the Almighty. Originally, Fletch supposedely played bass in a band with Vince Clarke, until he found a more evil instrument in the synthesizer, and formed a group called Composition of Sound with both Clarke and prissy Martin Gore. In 1980, these three musicians formed Depeche Mode with vocalist/strongman David Gahan. Fletcher has never been a leading musician in the group, but more of a mooch, where his strong points lie. He is also the only member that has never written a song for the band although it is indicated in one interview that he had attempted it in the past, but his offering didn't meet the usual Depeche standards of evil to warrant inclusion on any album.
