When you talk about a band, say, Depeche Mode, or any group/association, do you use the conjugation "is" or "are"?
For example, "Depeche Mode are releasing a new album soon!!" or "Depeche Mode is releasing a new album soon!!"
I always thought it was "is" because the noun is considered to be ONE thing, not many. I'm asking because on a forum I go to, the administration is constantly using the word "are" and it's totally wrong to me, but honestly, I don't know anymore.
