Description
This is the original UK vinyl release of the classic indie-pop / Britpop debut album from 1993 by Suede called "Suede" featuring Brett Anderson and Bernard Butler.
Release code: Nude 1LP.
The record is in excellent condition. There are a few light scuffs and creases on the outer sleeve, as you'd expect for a record of this age, but it's generally in really good condition. Pls refer to images for detail and just let me know if you have any questions or would like to see further pics.
I'm gutted to be selling it but I need to offload some records as I'm saving with my partner for a deposit on a house

Background and recording
Suede quickly attracted the attention of the British music press; in 1992 before they had even released their debut single, Melody Maker featured the band on its cover, dubbing them "The Best New Band in Britain."[2] The following yearQ magazine hailed them "The band of 1993"[3] The year leading up to the release of Suede saw the group dominate the music press, receiving considerable critical praise.[4] According to a March 1993 article in The Independent, at the time Suede "had more hype than anybody since the Smiths, or possibly even the Sex Pistols."[4] Critics supported the band during their early stages despite the often eccentric behaviour of singer Brett Anderson.
Suede was recorded at Master Rock Studios in Kilburn, north west London and cost £105,000 to make.[5] In the studio, the producer Ed Buller's method of working was that he would form a close relationship with the band member whom he thought to be most important for the sound and creative input. In Suede's case it was guitarist Bernard Butler, which did not go down well with Anderson.[6] Buller would be the band's closest musical collaborator for the years ahead. Anderson liked Buller as a person and for his enthusiasm for Suede. He endorsed his production on the first single "The Drowners"; however, he had different views on "Metal Mickey", feeling that Buller took the "metal brutality" out of the song. Instead of the song ending abruptly after the chorus, which the band demonstrated when performing live, Buller suggested an extended fade-out, which incorporated a key change.[7] Butler would eventually clash with Buller for similar reasons during the recording of the next album, which was an event Anderson could perceive early on. "I think as Bernard got more technically aware, because he always had a fine ear, he very soon saw flaws in what Ed was doing.
