But I'm paying for it now, just bringing this up has placed unsavory mental images in my head.

(80:09, this one was easy to compile as a hits survey. the non-single tracks are my essentials - and remember if you disagree, post yours!)

I guess it's not that much of a surprise, but I just randomly put on the latter and it hit me like a falling anvil.

As it happened, I brought the singles disc with me to work. Revival time!

Heck no. A noted fan is one Mr. John Darnellye of the Goats of Mountain, who wrote a wonderful essay on the album in one of the last print editions of Last Train to Jakarta.

I'm kinda surprised the website is still up. Did Mat, Richard and Simon just decide to retire and relax?

Underrated "Filmstar" moment -- that shift between the NIN/Zeppelin crunch on the verses and the none-more-psych tripped-out chorus. If you will.

Also, I faithfully bought all the editions of all the CD singles, right the way up to, and including, Positivity.

When I did my UK trip to celebrate Tom's wedding in 2003, I was invited, thanks to me running the mailing list, to stop by Suede's management office, Interceptor. This was after "Attitude" came out but just before the singles comp got released and, subsequently, the band decided to call it quits.
The band weren't there but Charlie Charlton, David Barnett and Ben Myers were -- all very good folks -- though I think there were a few low-key tensions that probably made sense a few weeks later. Anyway, while there they invited me to rifle through all the releases as I wished -- I had pretty much everything but this way I was able to pick up the most recent singles and the non-"London" Suede editions of most of the albums, rather handily.

I was listening to the fanclub only See You in the Next Life as well, released when the band wrapped it up, and I do love the unlisted bonus -- it's the full string arrangement from "Still Life," minus Brett or the rest of the band. V. dramatic.
― Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 8 November 2005 22:11 (eighteen years ago) link
Ha, for me it was (unranked outside the top 10), 4th, 2nd, 6th, and I didn't bother with "A New Morning" either.
― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Tuesday, 8 November 2005 23:08 (eighteen years ago) link
On the most overlooked early bsides is Bernard's rocker "Painted People." I think it was on the Animal Nitrate single.

Like others I was not interested when A New Morning came out. About a year after the release I found the import for real cheap and bought it. I really isn't that bad and was expecting something much worse. The problem was, just like the Tears, I rarely played it and don't have a complete evaluation of it. When you loaded the CD into your computer you could go to this web site and hear the original Tony Hoffer version of this album that the band aborted.

dog man star + bernard tracks on sci-fi lullabies unquestionably >>>>>>>>>> all other brit-pop but what the hell is up with the first album? the production/mix is so flat and shit.. it boggles the mind as to why/how its b-sides sound so stellar! i only really like "animals nitrate" and "the next life" on the thing anyways..
― winston, Wednesday, 23 July 2008 00:20 (fifteen years ago) link
i have visions of a rollicking extended full-band version of "the living dead" possibly with the "if i was the wife of an acrobat.." part as a refrain/chorus or something

Nothing concrete so far. But i bet there'll be a small tour @ least.
