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.
Suede's last album Bloodsports was a successful attempt at fixing mistakes of the past, a matter of settling unfinished business. Having done that, they attempt to move forward here with Night Thoughts. The record was designed to be listened to as a whole, as the songs segue into each other. There are some noticeable highs though, such as the back to back crunchy, catchy No Tomorrow and wistful Pale Snow. These highs are as good as the highs on Bloodsports, but NT has less individual quality songs than that album and at times things meander a bit too much here. Still, the band continues to sound rejuvenated as a whole during this impressive second run.
at least i received it. the packaging was flimsy. both sides of jewel case were cracked. there was a chip on the edge disc, but the music came through. 'appy 4th
i ordered the deluxe edition not in a plastic cover(jewel case).And not for the first time. i would have been useful to describe the item in more detail!
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.
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.
