INSTANT CONCERT
INSTANT CONCERT
SUEDE have confirmed details of their first live appearance
in just over a year.
The group are the last-minute additions to the Coimbra
University Music Festival in Portugal this coming Saturday
(October 27).
The show comes almost one year to the day since the group
premiered material from their forthcoming album at last
year's Iceland Airwaves festival in Reykjavik (October 22).
Members of the Suede Information Service are entitled to
free entry to the show, and details on how to get a ticket
are available on the official Suede website, www.suede.net.
The group are likely to use the show as an opportunity to
showcase new material. Speaking in a recent interview,
Anderson said that the record, the band's fifth, had been
given a working title of 'Instant Sunshine', but that is
unlikely to be the final title.
He said: "I liked 'Instant Sunshine' for a while. But I
hope I can come up with something better. If it ends up
being called 'Instant Sunshine', you'll know that I've
just given in! When we finished (last album) 'Head Music',
I wanted the next album to be called 'Graffiti', but this
doesn't sound like the sort of album that should be called
'Graffiti'.
"I thought the next album was gonna be duller and much,
much more urban, but it hasn't turned out that way, so I'm
not gonna shoehorn the title 'Graffiti' onto it. Another
idea was 'Fast Food', kind of trashy and throwaway, but I
don't think this one is trashy and throwaway."
The band have spent most of this year recording the album
with producer Tony Hoffer. Speaking about the sessions, he
said: "It's an album of two halves. We've got 10 songs,
which are 10 of the best we've written, but they're quite
different stylistically.
"What I'd do was go down to the studio or whatever then
come back and rehearse it with the band. And it was much
more of a diplomatic process. There are a lot more songs
that will be credited to the whole band."
Of the new songs, 'Beautiful Loser', which the band played
at last year's one-off show in Iceland, will definitely
feature on the record, and Anderson is most happy with
'Positivity', a song about "someone who's really close
to me, who doesn't have much in life but manages to deal
with it incredibly well".
The album is due for release at the start of 2002.
