Suede Coming Up (2-CD + DVD)

3 Stars (out of 5) - "...Suede get back to pop basics, offering concise melodies and taut, brashly energetic arrangements..."
8 (out of 10) - "...Swinging free of their past, ignoring the football present, Suede concentrate on one sweet, super-trebly corner of the world. Madly devoted flash hounds, they erase the distance between 1973 and 1997 and triumph at their own game."
"...Suede return with a determinedly harder yet more buoyant offering. There's atmosphere aplenty, but radio-friendly nuggets rather than glam, histrionic set pieces are the order of the day." - Rating: B+
Ranked #96 in Q's "100 Greatest British Albums" - "...A glam-rock crunch redolent of DIAMOND DOGS-era Bowie, while visualising mid-'90s youth as bored teens and beautiful losers. In their neon-lit world, the kids only come alive via pills, booze, sex and music..."
5 (out of 5) - "...Suede view this album as a brand-new beginning, and though the themes are familiar, low life and loveless, in many ways they're right....Busy, brave, bright, that's COMING UP..."
Pitchfork (Website) - "[I]t finds the band returning to its glam-rock roots, and it's about the most day-glo rock record this side of ZIGGY STARDUST..."
