Dog Man Star (30th Anniversary) (National Album Day 2024)

“Suede's second album is still truly extraordinary – who would dare make it today?” Alexis Petridis (The Guardian)

Suede’s era-defining second album from 1994 celebrates its 30^th anniversary this year with this National Album Day exclusive 2LP picture disc version. The exclusive format is limited to 2000 copies.

‘Dog Man Star’ is seen by many as Suede’s most musically adventurous album – sweeping strings sit next to orchestral ballads, epic widescreen pieces, indie anthems and trashy glam rock. It was the last album to feature the band’s guitarist and co-songwriter Bernard Butler.

It includes the classic hit singles ‘We Are The Pigs’, ‘The Wild Ones’, and ‘New Generation’. 

Art and design for this new format has been undertaken for Suede by official designer and photographer Paul Khera and includes new sleeve notes by Cure / Manic Street Preachers biographer Simon Price.
