]]> Suede find a familiar playground in ‘Dancing With The Europeans’ https://vanyaland.com/2025/07/29/suede-find-a-familiar-playground-in-dancing-with-the-europeans/ Tue, 29 Jul 2025 14:06:33 +0000 https://vanyaland.com/?p=10042088 A few short years ago the mighty Suede delivered the unexpected with Autofiction, an album so potent in its vitality and beautifully self-aware in its context it remarkably earned a place alongside the English icons’ ’90s-era holy trinity. It found a weathered and battle-worn band once again comfortable in its own skin, exploring themes of aging, of personal growth and maturity, and how we are all so much older than we were when we first kissed in rooms to popular […]

And that’s fairly on brand for the year that was, a period where we looked back in a fit of retro nostalgia while gazing forward towards an undetermined future. There was so much music, so much good music, that the avalanche of Best of 2022 lists decorating the […]

There’s an assumption, a history, a sense of entitlement and drama that builds in the fan’s corner, forever obscuring the proper efforts of those on the other side eager to make music that satisfies their own creative self. But once you take each member of that band out of his or her familiar environment, there’s room for a fresher appreciation, removed from the backdrop of expectation and the weight that comes […]
