Reseña

"The Blue Hour" aparece publicado el 21 de septiembre de 2018 bajo los sellos Suede Ltd. y Warner Music, contando con la producción del británico Alan Moulder y el teclista y vocalista de la banda, Neil Codling. Este álbum aparece dos años después de su anterior álbum "Night Thoughts", producido por Ed Buller y que obtuvo grandes halagos por parte de la crítica.

Para este octavo álbum de la banda londinense (tercero tras su anuncio de separación en 2003), el grupo hizo un anuncio en el mes de abril a través de la red social Instagram, aunque el título del álbum no se reveló hasta finales del mismo mes.

Pocos días antes del lanzamiento del álbum, Suede publicó un vídeo en Youtube con el tema "Flytipping", cuarto sencillo del álbum. El primer sencillo del disco es el titulado "The Invisibles", publicado el 3 de junio de 2018. Otros sencillo extraídos de este mismo disco han sido "Don't Be Afraid If Nobody Loves You" (12 de julio de 2018) y "Life Is Golden" (15 de agosto de 2018).

"The Blue Hour" es el primer disco en el que no ha participado el productor de referencia de Suede, Ed Buller, quien colaboraba con la banda desde el álbum "A New Morning" en 2002.

Los temas del disco hablan de la decadencia rural y cierra la trilogía del regreso, un regreso de la banda Suede que desde su anuncio de separación en 2003 han publicado "Bloodsports", "Night Thoughts" y ahora este "The Blue Hour".

letra de As One
Oh I'm your blue eyed boy

I'll suffer your indifference and

You can teach me pretty words

And we will feed the sparrows

Here I am

Here I am

Talking to my shadow

Head in my hands

Here I am (here I am)

Here I am (here I am)

Run to the hill

Counting the hay

He leads me through the swaying nettles

Growing by the underpass

When he smiles he looks like a fox

But when he holds me we will be as one

As one

As one

As one

Here I am

Here I am

Talking to my shadow

Head in my hands

Here I am (here I am)

Here I am (here I am)

Run to the hill

Counting the hay

letra de Wastelands
I watch you drift away

Around the room in my dress

The jewels on your bracelets

Have seen their best

I watch the sweat form

Against your clothes

I've seen the look on their faces

I think they know

That the clock is ticking away

And the wind is calling us

And the pleasantries will chain us

No more

When it all is much too much

We'll run to the wastelands

Where the snow is all there is

And words sound different

When it all is much too much

Meet me in the wastelands

Where the fear will fade away

Where the children in us play

I walk the smoky room

And stumble into you

The chattering of their voices

Says nothing new

But the clock is ticking away

And the wind is calling us

And the way you make your exits

There are no words

When it all is much too much

We'll run to the wastelands

At the car beside the roads

And seek each other

When it feels like much too much

Meet me in the wastelands

Where the horror slowly fades

Where the children in us play

When the world is much too much

We'll run to the wastelands

Leave footprints in the snow

'Til our ties are severed

When it all is too much to much

Meet me in the wastelands

Make a chain of flowers

Like our ties are severed

When the world is much too much

Meet me in the wastelands

At the car beside the roads

And seek each other

When the world is much too much

Meet me there in the wastelands

And the wind is on our face

And our veins are opened

When the world is much too much

Meet me in the wastelands

Make a chain of flowers

And the children in us play

The sky was steely

The countryside was bare

Twigs crackled under Mole's feet

Mole was alone

And far from help

And night was closing in

letra de Mistress
On a day without a night

Eyes the green of seawater

And skin so white

You're nothing like my mother

Do you hold him like her?

Do you need him like her?

Is he all that you've got?

Oh

So you stayed with him again

You fled with him

And travelled in his car now, you're late

To be with him and hold him

He loves you like words

He needs you like words

You're not all that he's got

But you're all that he wants

Mistress stay with him

Don't tell the neighbours

They don't mean a thing

Now you're in love

You're in love

By the camber of the road

Celebrate your differences

Free your ghosts

Be with him and hold him

He doesn't love you like her

He doesn't need you like her

You're not all that he's got

But you're all that he wants

Mistress stay with him

I won't tell the neighbours

They don't mean a thing

Now you're in love

You're in love

You're in love

(He said)

Mistress stay with me

Don't tell the people

They don't need to see

You're in love

You're in love

You're in love

Ooooh

letra de Beyond the Outskirts
Oh I lie here staring at the ceiling and I wonder what's happening outside

Oh I know you've got the same blank feeling, you don't have to tell me I'm right

Beyond the outskirts, come with us, we're small town dreaming, we're birds on a wire

Beyond the outskirts, come with us, we'll jump out of the page and into the fire

Oh well we could sit here by the chain link fence and talk for hours about Saturday

Oh well I know it makes no difference to anything much anyway

Beyond the outskirts, come with us, we're small town dreaming, we're birds on a wire

Beyond the outskirts, come with us, we'll jump out of the page and into the fire

Beyond the outskirts, come with us, we're small town dreaming, throwing coins in the fire

Beyond the outskirts, come with us, we'll jump out of the page and over the wire

Beyond the outskirts, come with us, we're small town dreaming, we're birds on a wire

Beyond the outskirts, come with us, we'll jump out of the page and into the fire

Oh I lie here staring at the ceiling and I wonder what's happening outside

Oh I know you've got the same blank feeling, I wonder where you are tonight

letra de Chalk Circles
Ring-rounds, stairways, roundabouts

I will pick you up

Watching traffic heading south

I will pick you up

With your money in your face

I will pick you up

Friendship bracelets on your wrist

I will pick you up

Oh with our feet in the snow

Oh where nobody goes

Oh we'll feel like giving

Go where the silence goes

Oh where the strange ones will play

Oh chalk circles and clay

Oh we'll feel like giving

Go where the silence goes

Go where the silence goes

Ring-rounds, stairways, roundabouts

I will pick you up

letra de Cold Hands
The playgrounds are empty

The wind it is still

I follow you up to the foot of the hill

My life is the hands of a child

The hands of a child

Put your cold hands on me

Take a spin of the wheel

I'll follow, I'll follow you down

With your cold hands on me

I'm a hare in the cat's eyes

A hare in the cat's eyes

I kicked at the chalk

Under vermillion skies

I said "I don't wanna play these games"

But I followed you and I

And now I want to curl up and die

I'll curl up and die

With your cold hands on me

With a spin of the wheel

I'll follow, I'll follow you down

Put your cold hands on me

I'm a hare in the cat's eyes

A hare in the cat's eyes

Put your cold hands on me

Take a spin of the wheel

I'll follow, I'll follow you down

With your cold hands on me

I'm a hare in the cat's eyes

Now see how a hare dies
Life Is GoldenVer letra 3:57

letra de Life Is Golden
The same blood runs through your veins

The same strange way of talking

The same thoughts sink through your pillow

The same crooked smile

You're not alone; look up to the sky and be calm

You're not alone look into the light and be heard

You're never alone; your life is golden

Golden

The same blood runs through your veins

But you have the light of your mother

She holds her love to her

Tender breast

You're not alone; look up to the sky and be calm

You're not alone look into the light and be heard

You're never alone; your life is golden

Golden

You're not alone when the world puts all the winter in you

Not alone, I'm there in the words that you use

You're never alone; your life is golden

Golden

And they won't love you tonight

Clap along to the resurrection

Carve your name in my tender skin

With your beautiful words

With your beautiful words

You're not alone; look up to the sky and be calm

You're not alone look into the light and be heard

You're never alone; your life is golden

Golden

You're not alone 'cause the same thoughts I have in my head

You're not alone with the city wind in your hair

You're never alone; your life is golden

Golden
RoadkillVer letra 2:06

letra de Roadkill
Today I found a dead bird

Crushed into the realbland clay

Brittle bones like snapped twigs

Velvet for the scurrying things

I cross myself, forlorn you lie

Scraped and drossed by the wind

Savaged by the tyres and tossed in the tar

Broken on the English dirt

A carcass for the carrion crow

And for the beaks that peck

Flesh beneath my flesh

Soil beneath my soil

Today I found a dead bird

Blind are the brokers and the unskilled workers

Blind are the brokers and the unskilled workers

Your wings beneath their wheels

Your wings beneath their wheels

Blind are the brokers and the unskilled workers

Blind are the brokers and the unskilled workers

Your bones beneath their heels

Today I found a dead bird

letra de Tides
Tides are pulling, pulling me back to you

Dragging me under, making me new

It's wonderful, it's wonderful

It's making me scared

I don't know where it's going

Clothed in pale gray

Rolling like driftwood

Waving at distant planes

I feel it against my paper cuts

And I'm holding onto nothing

Clinging to the void as I'm riding the waves

It's making me new again

Like a rain of bombs we'll fall to you

Through the blue, through the blue

Tides are pulling me

I'm lost in the pale rain

I'm clutching at debris

I'm trying to stay awake

The water level rises

I'm miles from the shore now

And I'm riding the waves

Dragging me under again

Like a rain of bombs we'll fall to you

Through the blue, through the blue

Like a rain of bombs we'll drop from the sky

A rain of fire, a rain of fire

Tides are pulling, pulling me back to you

Taking my hand, dragging me under

It's wonderful, it's wonderful

Pulling me under, pulling me through

Tides are pulling, pulling me back to you

Taking me over, making me new

It's wonderful, it's wonderful

Pulling me under, pulling me back to you

letra de All the Wild Places
Take her cold hands

Place the snowdrops in her palms

And pushing through the wire

I have no choice but to follow you

Feel the weak sunlight on my skin

As I take my spade and place her

Forever by the birch trees

And there was another

But she wasn't tamed

With the buzz of the flies

With a flick of her mane

And there was another

But she wasn't you, you, you

Out of all the wild places I love

Out of all the wild places I love

Out of all the wild places I love

You are the most desolate

Faith is scattered like the birds

She would never bend to their

Commandments in life

Her freckled skin couldn't bear the weight

Take her cold hand by the lake

Place the spade into my amorous arms

As I lie my coat down for her one more time

And there was another

But she wasn't changed

With the buzz of the flies

With the flick of her mane

And there was another

But we won't see her again, again, again

Out of all the wild places I love

Out of all the wild places I love

Out of all the wild places I love

Yours is the most desolate
The InvisiblesVer letra 4:09

letra de The Invisibles
The world waits for you when

And the dawn breaks for you when

And the media will watch

And she will change her mind

I tried to win for you when

I shed my skin for you when

I loved you like my own

I fed you like a child

I stay in bed and feed the day

With my imagination, honey

Falling through the cracks in people's kindness

And the world won't step aside

I tried to make you want me

I left my home at seventeen

But everywhere I looked I saw

Another me

And we are the invisibles

Plain and lonely

It's funny how it's always out of reach

I hear the wood pigeons and

I call my father in and

He sits and hears me sing

But never wonders why

Why do I call out in the night

He found the photos set alight

Everything about her

Makes me want to smile

I'll stay in bed and feed the day

With my polite conversation, father

Papering the cracks in others' silence

But I still won't step aside

I tried to make her want me

I tried to play her politics

But every step I took

I had to swallow this

That we are the invisibles

Strange and lonely

It's funny how it's always out of reach

It's funny how it's always out of reach

It's funny how the world is out of reach

letra de Flytipping
We'll play on the road

Flytipping careful as you go

And we'll watch as the lorries

Transport their precious loads

With a bag in our hands

Flytipping me and my patient man

Just by the hard shoulder

There's few who understand

What is mine and what is yours?

Do we own these things?

What has it all been for?

Flytipping on the road, of course

What is yours and what is ours?

Do we fool ourselves with all those pretty words?

Flytipping on the road with her

And I'll take you to the fortress

As the paper drips blood for me, slow

Under the trees

Two hunters looking for ivory

Discard their possessions

Cast them to the breeze

'Cause the worms in the ground

And the crows as they circle 'round

God made these things to cling to

For it haunts their playground

What is mine and what is yours?

Do we own these things?

What has it all been for?

Flytipping on the road, of course

Shiny things that shine for us

Should we shawl ourselves with all this pretty stuff?

Flytipping feels like just enough

And I'll take you to the fortress

By the nettles by the roundabouts

And I'll pick you wild roses

In the tunnels by the underpass
