Trust a band as mercurial and puckish as Suede <\/a>to turn everything we know about band reunions on their heads. Because we all thought we knew the drill, didn\u2019t we? Legendary band goes down in drug-addled flames stoked with bad blood and continent-sized egos. For a few years, we wait it out. Suffering the bassist\u2019s screamo-zydeco side project with gritted teeth because hey, it\u2019s better than nothing. <\/p>\n The rumours start swirling that they\u2019re getting back together and, joy of joys, they are! They spend a summer festival circuit as the most exciting band in the world. Then the honeymoon period ends, and we all pretend to like the new stuff because hey, it\u2019s better than nothing. Then Suede got back together, spent the summer of 2011 as the most exciting band in British rock and then, just as we all settled in to stymie our disappointment at the new stuff, found out that we wouldn\u2019t have to. <\/p>\n The band got off to one hell of a restart with 2013s Bloodsport, an absolutely cracking return to form that showed there was still life in the Suede beast yet. However, no one could have prepared for their second reunion album, 2016s Night Thoughts, to be an absolute screaming masterpiece. Not only one of the best rock albums of the year, but in with a shout of being the best album the band had ever made. <\/p>\n An album that manages to combine typical Suede bangers with atmospheric, almost cinematic production flourishes that more than justify the album premiering alongside a specially shot film. One that ruled so hard that its best, most exciting moment wasn\u2019t even released as a single due to the album being so ridiculously stacked. <\/p>\n What is the most overlooked song by Suede? <\/p>\n After the lead single \u2018Outsiders\u2019 has finished its propulsive, beguiling stomp, one might already be thinking that something very special is happening. The chiming, distorted riff of \u2018No Tomorrow\u2019 swaggering in like Ziggy Stardust era Bowie <\/a>doing \u2018Motown Junk\u2019 will prove that it is indeed the case. With that, Brett Anderson\u2019s mob kicks off a song that deserves pride of place among their best songs. <\/p>\n On a purely musical level, there are more than a few notes of the buoyant guitar-pop that made up their mainstream breakthrough, Coming Up. However, while that record was made with an almost bloody-minded drive to write radio hits, there\u2019s something much more natural about \u2018No Tomorrow\u2019. The hooks within hooks within hooks you find here come from nothing more than a desire to make art like that, rather than a need to prove that Dog Man Star hadn\u2019t killed their career. <\/p>\n I mean it too, there\u2019s barely a second of the song that doesn\u2019t contain something that can get stuck in your head for the rest of the day. From Richard Oakes\u2019 phenonomenal guitar line to Anderson\u2019s skyscraping falsetto in the chorus. However, like any other Suede classic, there\u2019s a darkness at this song\u2019s heart that the ecstatic hooks aren\u2019t so much covering up as Trojan Horse-ing your way under the listener\u2019s skin. <\/p>\n This is a song about how nihilism is no excuse. That there may be \u2018No Tomorrow\u2019, but that doesn\u2019t mean we can\u2019t \u201cfight the sorrow\u201d all the same. You may be nothing more than \u201ca cadaver in tracksuit trousers\u201d, but we can find meaning if we do as Anderson\u2019s doing and \u201cConnect [him] to missing persons.\u201d It\u2019s a powerful message, one that was eerily prevalent for the entire year of its release and has only gotten more impactful as the years have gone by. <\/p>\n
