On their dark album Nights Thoughts that appeared in 2016, Suede released twelve tracks carved from a Bowie-esque marble. It was grandiloquent and impeccable, although a little bit past it at times, as suggested by the opening track “When We Were Young”. Following their reformation in 2010, we find Blue Hour, a gloomier part three of the triptych – preceded by Bloodsports (2013) and Night Thoughts (2016). Brett Anderson, the singer of the group, remarked “I think Suede should be unpleasant, that’s the point of a band like Suede.” The group fully inhabits “Suedeworld”, a universe “set in a rural landscape, on the hard shoulder of the motorway, among the B-roads and among the rubbish that’s been fly-tipped. It’s set by a chain link fence with a dead badger lying rotting in the ground.” Anderson aims to push back the borders of Suede, a rare survivor of the still appetizing Brit Pop. This is how he renews himself and finds “new ways to be Suede”. From As One to Flytipping, the London band grab their strings, guitars and synths to celebrate a mass that is sometimes mournful (The Invisibles), sometimes dirty (Beyond The Outskirt). It’s both poignant and caricatured. Though perhaps troubling at first glance, Blue Hour is an endeavor to be explored further. © Charlotte Saintoin/Qobuz
