Suede announced details for their new studio album The Blue Hour. The band's 8th studio album arrives on September 21st and has been described by Suede as "genuinely progressive, expansive and definitive body of work." The album is the third and final part of the "triptych of albums" the band recorded and released since reforming in 2013.

In an interview with NME Brett Anderson told the mag that Suede explored new territories on the album, including the use of spoken word elements and a choir, plus enlisted The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra. Anderson also revealed the album took over a year to write and is a "diverse" and "complicated" record that he describes as "quite a journey." The album was inspired by Anderson's son:

"It’s quite dank and troubling. It was conceived as a record almost from a child’s point of view. My son is my muse these days, and I write about him and through his eyes. He inspired the book I wrote recently, ‘Coal Black Mornings’. He was my inspiration on the last two records and this is a continuation of that. I’ve always written from different perspectives. A lot of this is about the terrors of childhood, so it’s quite unpleasant in lots of ways. I think Suede should be unpleasant, that’s the point of a band like Suede...We have to inhabit Suedeworld and it’s not a very nice place!"

View the album trailer and tracklisting below. Pre-order The Blue Hour from Suede's official store.
