Video of the Moment #1985: Suede

There’s no getting round it, I am really, really excited about the new Suede album out next week. After the assertive comeback that was 2013’s ‘Bloodsports’, I think it’s pretty safe assumption that ‘Night Thoughts’, which will be out next week on Warner Records, will be another collection of corkers. ‘Outsiders’, which was unveiled in September of last year, is proof that they’re still able to churn out sweepingly beautiful anthems fit for the largest of music festivals.
Their latest reveal is for ‘Pale Thoughts’, which upon first listen is a much more heart-rending number, its tempo, Brett Anderson’s pained vocals and the forlorn guitar and synth lines all contributing to a feeling of solemnity that is oddly enjoyable, even if it seems to be borne from a kind of sad ennui. Watch the suitably visually reined-in video for the song below. The song is available at an instant download when you preorder ‘Night Thoughts’, out next Friday, the 22nd of January.
