Dog Man Star

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Released in October 1994, Dog Man Star was Suede’s second studio album. The album was recorded in London at Master Rock studios in early 1994 and was produced by Ed Buller. It was the last Suede album to feature guitarist Bernard Butler, due to growing tensions between him and singer Brett Anderson ending with Butler leaving the band before the album was completed. Although it did not sell on the same scale as their chart-topping debut, Dog Man Star reached number three on the UK Album Chart and was certified as gold by the BPI in November 1994.

After being declared the "Best New Band In Britain" and having their glam-pop debut album go Gold in a matter of weeks, Suede were under enormous pressure to make their follow-up album just as much of a media event. And in a way, they did--Brett Anderson retreating to his Gothic basement in Highgate and penning half an album's worth of apocalyptic visions; Bernard Butler pulling out an arsenal of ferocious Zeppelin riffery and baroque pedal-stomping before quitting the band three weeks before the album was completed. As a result, parts of Dogmanstar sound half-finished: "We Are The Pigs" is never as great as it thinks it is, and the random bursts of radio transmissions on "The Power" only ever sound like a big Butler-solo-shaped hole. But the grandeur, darkness and totality of Dogmanstar always out-weigh any niggles: "New Generation" would gladden the dead, and "Still Life" is never anything other than ravishing. --Caitlan Moran
