Bloodsports Suede

Det engelske, Mercury Prize-vindende alternative rockband, Suede, som banede vejen for genren Britpop i sin tid og bragte en mere poppet lyd ind i den alternative rock genre udgiver det nye album Bloodsports i marts 2013. Bandet, som skrev roskilde-historie i 1999 som det første band der spillede 3 dage i træk, udgiver deres første materiale i 10 år, og har en stor og trofast fanskare her i Danmark. De engelske anmeldere er overvældet. Pladen er den første de udgiver siden 2002, og er deres 6. studiealbum. NME som har gennemlyttet Suede’s nye materiale fortæller: “Suede seem brighter, fuller and more energized than they have in a long time”. Forsanger Brett Anderson siger om albummet: "After a year of sweating and bleeding over the record it's finally finished so we wanted to get some music out there as soon as we could. 'Barriers' isn't the first single but we are proud enough of it to just chuck it out there and thought that its pulsing, romantic swell somehow summed up the feel of the album quite nicely. The album is called 'Bloodsports'. It's about lust, it's about the chase, it's about the endless carnal game of love. It was possibly the hardest we ever made but certainly is the most satisfying. It's ten furious songs have reclaimed for me what Suede was always about: drama, melody and noise."
