Suede announce new LP 'Autofiction'


Suede will return with a new album in September.

Suede aka The London Suede will release Autofiction, their ninth studio record in September. The record features personal reflections from Brett Anderson -- some of his most personal songs yet -- and was recorded in a "back to basics" style. Anderson describes Autofiction as Suede's "punk record" and went on to describe the recording process:

"Autofiction is our punk record. No whistles and bells. Just the five of us in a room with all the glitches and fuck-ups revealed; the band themselves exposed in all their primal mess."

Autofiction arrives September 16th and will be released on limited edition clear vinyl, CD, and digitally. Pre-order here.

Stream the first single from Autofiction titled "She Still Leads Me On" which Anderson wrote about his late mother, plus view the tracklisting for the record below.
