Suede’s self-titled debut (released in the US as The London Suede) is a defining record of the early ’90s Britpop era, mixing glam-rock swagger with poetic melancholy. Brett Anderson’s theatrical vocals and Bernard Butler’s sweeping guitar work give the album a unique, cinematic feel. From the urgent So Young to the haunting closer The Next Life, it’s a bold introduction that cemented the band as one of Britain’s most important acts of the decade.
