Comeback of the 21st century


How many comebacks can Suede make? Certainly, coming back with Coming Up was their tour de force. And coming back last year, certainly was another miracle. Latest news leaves it open if we will see another new Suede song released. The summer tour could be their last, or not? We only can hope they don't end up like The Rolling Stones.

So this great cover with Brett as the Lady Di reigning over brit pop celebrated the fabulous comeback in the Fall of 1996. Suede is all over this issue, with an ad for the Beautiful Ones single, a 2 page overview of all releases until that day, and a full history of the band running over 12 pages. The band were at the height of their powers and becoming a sensation all over Europe and Asia.
