Review

NME (Magazine) (10/01/94, p.47) - 9 - Excellent Plus - "...Suede have brilliantly sent up modern life as an endless comic opera, a seaside postcard dipped in cheap lager and Coca-Cola..."
Q (11/94, p.123) - 5 Stars - Indispensable - "...With DOG MAN STAR, the group has vindicated just about every claim that was ever made on their behalf...It will be hailed in years to come as the crowning achievement of a line-up that reinvented English, guitar-band rock..."
Mojo (Publisher) (1/95, p.51) - Included in Mojo's "25 Best Albums of 1994".
Rolling Stone (12/29/94-1/12/95, p.185) - "...For jean genies who cream over Bowie's ALADDIN SANE, it's very nearly the Second Coming....Rushing, with splendid haircuts, to the apocalypse, these brass-knuckled poseurs pause even so to mourn for Jimmy Dean...rip off Byron...and evoke Marilyn..."

Product note

In 1993 when Suede introduced their neo-glam sound to the pop market, critics tripped over themselves dropping names ranging from The Smiths to T. Rex, all the while trying to determine where Suede fell in the scheme of British rock. Was Suede glam? Were they the much heralded but vaguely defined "new wave" of the new wave? Now with their second album DOG MAN STAR it all comes into focus. Side-stepping rock's constant judgements, Suede have strengthened their grip on the fickle British pop market. Brett Anderson's half hysterical, half morose, and all-the-while introspective stance on life as a pop star is charmingly reminiscent of rock's favorite crooner, Morrissey, from one of rock's most beloved British neo-glam bands, The Smiths. With DOG MAN STAR the band has grown past its glam guitar pose and evolved into a fiercely melodic, lushly arranged orchestration of modern rock. Building off Anderson's gift for witty double-edged lyrics, DOG MAN STAR becomes the listener's guide to modern London. By the second track, "We Are The Pigs," Anderson's keen eye for detail is in place as he paints the picture of London's riot-filled streets. "We all watch them burn," sing school children over the sounds of crackling flames, and the listener can't help but take notice. Glam or not, Suede will remain the dominant force in British guitar rock.
