------------------------------------------------------------------------
I know there has been a lot of speculation and rumor about precisely what I'm up to so I thought I'd set the record straight.
Firstly I can confirm that me and Bernard are working together again.We've written about fifteen songs so far and even though it's early days I can honestly say that I believe the work to be up there with some of the best things we've ever done.
We have been rehearsing with a drummer and a bass player who will be part of our new band. I can't tell you what we will be called yet but it will not be Suede or Anderson and Butler.
We'll be entering a London studio to start recording in June so I'm hoping that you will hear something early next year.

Also I've been working on a solo album with a guy called Fred Ball. Some of you might have heard his Pleasure album from last year. The material is more programmed than the Bernard stuff but still song based.
Danish fans will have heard one of these songs, ' Love Is Dead ', at the recent Copenhagen show.
The writing of this album is close to being finished too but I have a less clear plan as to when it might be released.

WELCOME TO THE NEXT LIFE

They should name themselves after that lad they got in to replace Butler in Suede. That would be good.
