(2020) Suede – Beautiful Ones: The Best of Suede 1992-2018 [Deluxe Edition]
Review: Demon Music are releasing a new Suede compilation called Beautiful Ones: The Best of Suede 1992-2018. The original era (1993 to 2002) saw the band issue five albums including their Mercury music prize-winning self-titled debut (1993), the even better follow-up Dog Man Star (1994) and then after the departure of guitarist and songwriter Bernard Butler, three further albums including the hit-packed Coming Up (1996). The 2003 collection Singles summarised this period and included a couple of non album tracks, including the single ‘Attitude’. Since reforming in 2010, the band have issued three further albums with Night Thoughts (2016) and The Blue Hour (2018), in particular, scaling the artistic heights once more. This new Beautiful Ones compilation has been compiled by the band, and features hits (‘Animal Nitrate’, ‘Stay Together’, ‘Trash’) , favourite B-sides (‘To the Birds’, ‘My Insatiable One’, ‘Killing of a Flashboy’) and classic album tracks (‘The Asphalt World’, ‘He’s Gone’). It obviously brings things up to date by including tracks from the last three records, including ‘Life is Golden’, ‘It Starts Aand Ends with You’ and ‘Outsiders’.
