Years after we all stopped caring, Suede call it a day. I did only get into them with their third album Coming Up but then going back and getting Suede and Dog Man Star I realised they were so much better. The pairing of Anderson and Butler produced great songs whereas apart they were both rubbish. Suede Mark Two had a few great songs, based around the keyboards of Neil 'Lizard King' Codling, but were rocketing in to irrelevence. I heard that at their recent ICA week long residence tickets for the second night, where they were performing the songs that make up their second album, Dog Man Star, were being touted for around £1000, tickets for their final and fifth album night were being touted for less than what the ICA had charged.
