Suede Reveal First New Material In 10 Years

Suede have unveiled "Barriers", their first official release in 10 years. 

The song has been add to our current playlist and is the first taken from the band's forthcoming album, 'Bloodsports', out on March 2013. 

In a press release, frontman Brett Anderson explained: "After a year of sweating and bleeding over the record it’s finally finished so we wanted to get some music out there as soon as we could. 'Barriers' isn’t the first single but we are proud of it enough just to chuck it out there and thought that it’s pulsing, romantic swell somehow summed up the feel of the album quite nicely."

"The album is called Bloodsports. It's about lust, it's about the chase, it's about the endless carnal game of love. It was possibly the hardest we've ever made but certainly the most satisfying. It's ten furious songs for me have reclaimed from ourselves what Suede was always about; drama, melody and noise." He continued.

Suede Recording New Album

Suede frontman Brett Anderson has confirmed that the band are back in the studio recording a new album. 

"We've been working on the new Suede album, which has been really exciting," Brett Anderson said. "We've been writing for the last year, and recording on and off. We recording one session in May, and we've got another at Sarm studuios for a few weeks this month. It's where they did a load of 80s pop things, like Frankie Goes To Hollywood, Seal, stuff like that. It's Trevor Horn's studio. Is he producing it? Yeah right, though we actually had a meeting with him in the 90s, Saul from Nude wanted him to produce Head Music. But no, Ed Buller is producing it."

Asked about how has the recording been going, Brett said: "I've been loving it. Any album is brutally hard, and this one has been pretty hard. The first couple of months were us trying to get on the same wavelength, is this working, trying to develop the sound we wanted. A lot of the writing process for me is throwing stuff away, because you're finding out what you want to do. There was a lot of that, and we discarded quite a few songs. Early this year we started hitting on the sort of songs that we were aiming to write, and it's sounding really good now."

Continuing, Brett Anderson revealed that the album "sounds like Suede" although not "the last two albums". "It sounds like a cross between bits of 'Dog Man Star' and bits of 'Coming Up'. It's not as light as 'Coming Up', not la la la hooky, though there's pop moments" he said. 

"Ed Buller is a real fan of pop music that really connects, the (Marc) Bolan sound, so it's edging in the big pop chorus direction. It feels like it's going to be good."
