What's the opinions of others here? Are Suede being written out of the picture? NME hardly bothered to cover their comeback and at the risk of being slated new album 'A New Morning' has really grown on me (though I still have to fast wind the pish).
Opinions anyone?

I'm sure the chap mentioning Huntingdon Life Sciences was doing so to wind me up, as he really should know that it is my ambition to see that death camp, and everyone in it, go redundant as soon as possible (well, okay, if I had my way I'd like to see them all contract a nasty and very painful genital disease that will lead to a slow death).
I think Brett Anderson, much like Billy Corgan, has a voice you either love or hate. It documented my years at uni, and many more important times for me so I can honestly say I adore his singing. I still fall in love whenever I hear The Wild Ones, and Another No One is the best song about breaking up ever, ever, ever. Sniff.

I've been around these parts for (I think) almost two years calum (apart from december where I went on holiday). How are things?
I did get those emails and there's no need to apologise.

Oh yeah - and the hidden track - 'Oceans' from A New Morning is gorgeous. It's one of Suede's best songs in aaaages.

If they are being written out of the picture it's because they promised much but essentially failed to deliver.
― DV (dirtyvicar), Sunday, 2 March 2003 22:53 (twenty-two years ago)
I used to have the first album (my aunt bought it mistaking it for the OTHER Suede so she gave her copy to me), but I gave to a friend who really liked "the Drowners." I should ask for it back, at least for another listen. But yeah, Dog Man Star sounded really yawny from what I remember. Not enough pep.
― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Sunday, 2 March 2003 23:28 (twenty-two years ago)
You should. Much better album all in all than Dog Man Star, which has some really great songs, some draggy ones, and some murky arrangements that are sometimes yay and sometimes nay.

Never been a fan of all their other songs, though. The lead singer's Geddy Lee-esque voice gets on my nerves.

How's about you upload one of your best tunes and we can all see whether or not it stands up to "Black Star" or "Banana Co".
You arrogant ninny.

To surmise; Suede will not be forgotten as they wrote some of the finest pop music of the 1990's, talked addled sense and looked cool as fuck.
Seen?
― chris sallis, Sunday, 16 March 2003 22:45 (twenty-two years ago)
But I didn't infer that the music that I produce is superior to Radiohead's.
Seen I.

What do you all think of them?
― Richard Hart (Filmy), Monday, 24 October 2005 23:16 (nineteen years ago)
Yeah, 'cause where they really fit at the time was in the third-rate Smiths/Bowie ripoff category. I remember Melody Maker desperately trying to whip up "Suedemania" - they even used that phrase on the cover at the time, iirc. I fucking hated them at the time, and I hate them now. Brett's "I'm a gay man who's never had a homosexual experience" schtick was about as tiresome as Franz Ferdinand's daring exposes of the gay lifestyle.
