The British band, who came back recently, promised their new work has nothing to do with their last album.
Suede, English alternative rock band formed in 1989, were highly successful during the 90’s, their self-named glam rock-inspired debut album quickly reached the top of the charts, became the fastest-selling debut album in almost ten years and won the Mercury Music Prize, helping kick-start the Britpop movement. Despite band members’ coming and going, their following albums Dog Man Star, Coming Up and Head Music were also chart toppers, until their fifth work arrived. A New Morning was surprisingly disappointing and end up with the group disbanding.
Ten years have passed after their last album’s release, and Suede recognized their mistake, letting audience know that their new work has nothing to do with the 5th one. Should we believe them? Well, it’s a good thing that a band recognizes their failures with no excuses, so that’s a good start. Brett Anderson said, "Don’t worry, it doesn't sound anything like the last album. […] Nothing would see the light of day unless I was really, really excited about it”. Since they came back in 2010, they have been performing all around the world and trying to build this new album, which Anderson said: "We're not trying to reinvent the sound of the band, that'd be a disastrous thing to do. I think that's possibly where we went wrong on the last two albums: we didn't know where to go with the sound so we were looking for another direction, with mixed results." Now the band is in Trevor Horn's Sarm studios, working with Ed Buller, producer of their first three albums. Let’s see what comes out of this re-union…
