148. A new mourning
As much as 2013's "Bloodsports" was a triumphant return for Suede, it almost sank in the wake created by David Bowie's comeback album ("The next day"). Coincidentally, this time around, not only do they have Bowie's "Blackstar" requiem to contend with, but also a full-blown global mourning for his passing. Well and truly back into the swing of things, with this new record the band is reaching heights it has not reached since their sophomore album, 1994's seminal "Dog man star". In fact, the comparisons with that album are inevitable since "Night thoughts" is reminiscent of its atmosphere and grandiosity, from the set's brooding opener, "When you are going", all the way to the closing track, "The fur & the feathers" (bringing to mind "Introducing the band" and "Still life", respectively, from "Dog man star"), and in between.Having said that, if one had to place the new album in their discography, "Night thoughts" feels like the successor of that record and its follow-up, "Coming up", mostly due to its balancing the intimate and the personal with the universal and mass appeal. For every song that bears "Dog man star"'s deeply esoteric quality (the gentle "Pale snow", the emotionally charged "Tightrope"), there is another which seems to come from the same pop-fuelled mindset as "Coming up" (the glam-pop first single "Outsiders", the Bowie-like "No tomorrow"). Not a stereotypical Suede album, book-end by the orchestra-led aforementioned songs, and with the set's 12 tracks segueing into each other, this concept record stands as a rock opera, a notion further enhanced by the short accompanying film by photographer Roger Sargent, included on the CD+DVD edition.The album leans heavily on the hallmarks of Suede's sound, but cleverly pulls forward past themes, exploring darker terrain, and focusing on morbid themes such as ageing and decaying. Whereas previously all kinds of excesses and deviants populated the band's signature songs, on this set the innocence of those times is thrown against the gravity of today (20+ years on, this is only logical). Brett Anderson, even though he is a master at creating a vivid scene with incredible detail, here he demonstrates more personal conviction in his writing than before. Similarly, the sound often opts for stark minimalism in order to deliver the deepest of emotion. But when it chooses to be big, in typical Suede fashion, soaring string orchestras are employed, layers of sound are added, anthemic choruses soar. Epic as it can possibly be.Their early work remains unsurpassed because of its pure brilliance, but "Night thoughts" is a supreme record, crackling with energy, and dripping with sentiment. Following on the raw fierceness of their eponymous debut, the sublime beauty of "Dog man star", the unstoppable passion of "Coming up", the elegiac magnificence of "Sci-fi lullabies", the urban alienation of "Head music", the mellow optimism of "A new morning", and the sophisticated energy of "Bloosports", "Night thoughts"'s plush intensity adds one more chapter in a career filled with great highs (and perhaps a sole low). Once proclaimed as "The Best New Band in Britain", now fully restored to their status as one of UK's greatest bands, rightfully still around, relevant and exciting as ever, "Night thoughts" is an auspicious moment. This is bittersweet and brilliant britpop.

Images in this review - Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 January 2016The annoyance of millennials and how they listen to music has to do with the way they listen: usually song by song, even simply scanning samples and bits of songs on iTunes or Spotify to see if a song or two interests them. However, this album simply cannot be listened to in bits and pieces - - it becomes a work of art when listened to front to back in sequence. And I cannot believe I am saying this as a massive, massive vinyl person, but the DVD that accompanies the album in the deluxe offerings is actually the best way to immerse yourself in this record. The break of flipping records over is typically part of why I love records - that whole ceremony - but here it just breaks up the listener's experience I'm about to detail below.
When you put on "Outsiders" or "Like Kids" as a standalone thing, they're good and recognizable as Suede - but perhaps almost come off as what you'd expect having heard their surprisingly good comeback album "Bloodsports" from 2013. However, when you sit and experience "Night Thoughts" as an album, each song has its place and the artistic quality and musicality become just staggeringly brilliant.
Being a fan since the start (1993), I've just accepted that I'm just going to dive in and buy multiple formats of each of their albums. I got the Deluxe Book, the Vinyl and ordered the Limited issue from Japan that is accompanied by a soon to be scarce CD of the album as Instrumentals. I know there's a cassette floating around there somewhere...
So here's what I did. The wife and the kids went to bed and were fast asleep. I went downstairs to my proper home theatre set up and put the DVD on. I left the iPhone and iPad upstairs, poured myself a Maker's Mark bourbon over ice, and disconnected from the rest of the world to immerse myself in this film. No Facebook updates, no Twitter posts, no kids asking questions, etc. What an experience! This record is, without question, their best album with this current line-up. Nothing will ever or can ever top the first two records because they were masterpieces without anything being calculated and in spite of everything going on.
While I love all of this album, as a whole, I cannot get over how amazing "Pale Snow" is. Just listening to the instrumental version on the aforementioned bonus CD showcases how much creativity went into this song. But again, even better when listened to in the context of the album. When the film credits roll at the very end, you're reminded that Neil Codling had a very big part in writing some of these songs. Bigger than usual and here he has really elevated his game.
The Deluxe Book with the photographs and DVD is really a great way to go. And for those wondering, whether you buy the UK DVD or the Japan DVD, they're all NTSC, ALL Regions so they will absolutely work no matter which country you're in. I'm in San Francisco and both work without an issue on my blu-ray player or new Playstation.
Richard's writing is at its best here and Brett's vocals and storytelling here are a work of art. The production is also very, very good. Again, their finest album in the past twenty years and I'm having a hard time explaining how good it is without cursing. This album is on its way to being classified as a masterpiece.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 March 2016There is a sequence of three tracks on this album - Outsiders, No Tomorrow and Pale Snow - where Suede hit top form. Pop sensibility, great production and a sense of dynamics as the tracks flow into each other; you realise just how outstanding Suede can be when they get it right. However, whilst there aren't any duds on the album, the material just isn't consistently strong enough all the way through to make this a 5 star purchase. Half a dozen full plays, a few selective plays of the best bits and then into the CD rack - it's good but not great.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 January 2016This is a review for the Vinyl of Suede Night Thoughts. Mighty impressed with Suede "Night Thoughts" it is double 180g Vinyl played at 45RPM (usual for singles) instead of the usual 33RPM for albums. They could have done this in the cheap and supplied a single Vinyl at 33RPM but spacing the tracks on to 2 Vinyls at 45RPM is the business similar to what Peter Gabriel has done recently with the re-release of his first four albums. Got a fright when I first put it on at 33RPM Suede sounded more like crappy Coldplay arrggh!!! Realised the error and switched the Turntable on to 45 RPM awesome now - proper music now and getting the same vibes as when I first played Kate Bush The Hounds of Love - The Ninth Wave (side B of Kate's album) must surely have been a huge inspiration for this album as I've heard Suede's lead singer speak high praise of Kate's Ninth Wave. Similar theme also of life, death, love, anguish and despair while fighting for life in water. Mighty impressed and the first Suede album I really like. After hearing it I also bought a ticket to see them perform this live!

5.0 out of 5 stars Du pur Suede
Un très bon album de Suede sans surprise, mais très efficace. Brett Anderson est au sommet de son art (ce qui peut agacé si on n'apprécie pas ce type de voix) porté par les mélodies du groupe très accrocheuses qui ont fait leur succès sur les premiers albums.

5.0 out of 5 stars A more mature Suede
This is a fantastic album. Their best work in a long time, although Bloodsports was very good and a major improvement over A New Morning. The overall lyrical content is the best of all the post Bernard Butler albums, not that the others were devoid of a few gems. Musically, Night Thoughts is as sound as the rest of the Suede discography.
One or two of the songs may be good outside the context of the whole album, while others don't exactly work at well on their own. That doesn't mean those songs are bad, it just means they work better in the flow of the album as a whole - like pieces of a puzzle.
Well done, Suede!

5.0 out of 5 stars Questa sì che è una sorpresa...
Sono un ammiratore dei Suede dai loro albori (ho tutti i loro album da studio, e anche quelli di Brett Anderson e Bernard Butler) ma probabilmente sono un pò controcorrente rispetto agli altri fans della band. Infatti sono uno di quelli cui era piaciuto, e molto, "A new mornirg"...album che ho trovato molto piacevole, dalle sonorità più vivaci e pulite rispetto ai precedenti, in cui si perceviva maggiormente la qualità vocale di Brett. Al contrario, non sono mai riuscito ad apprezzare il loro cavallo di ritorno "Bloodsports", un album che, nonostante numerosi ascolti, non mi è mai entrato in testa.
E invece, finalmente, Night thoughts...
Ne sono in possesso da alcune settimane, e non smetto di ascoltarlo. E sempre con molto piacere. Un album che riprende il percorso dei primi Suede, in alcuni caratteri strutturali dell'album si rivedono elementi di Dog Man Star (bellissimo...), alcuni richiami musicali (più orecchiabili) di Coming Up....e, secondo me, la freschezza musicale di A new morning. Un bel risultato davvero, Lo consiglio anche a chi aveva perso nel tempo un pò di interesse per questa band. Sono tornati a bei livelli. Ora, per davvero.
