Suede (or The London Suede for those of us in the states...so annoying) are coming back with a new album, Bloodsports. Surely somebody else on this board cares.
the first taste was this sweet, brooding tune called "Barriers". It sports a new-wavey synth/guitar line with a bassline that doesn't sound too far removed from New Order or U2, but has come classic Suede chord changes. It's got a great chorus, with a blast of wobbly guitar that is vintage Suede through and through...

Then came the first single, "It Starts and Ends With You". For Suede fans, this sounds like a lost gem from the "Coming Up" album, but minus some of the production techniques that mad that album sound trashy. It's a classic Suede tune. Somewhere i read that Brett described it as a string of choruses, and that's pretty spot on. Fantastic, rambling guitar playing, choruses that get bigger and bigger, some great slinky bass playing, and a great vocal performance. To say I'm excited for this album would be a massive understatement.
