Manic Street Preachers and Suede have announced a co-headline US and Canadian tour. Check out the dates and ticket details below, as Manics’ frontman James Dean Bradfield tells NME about their history with the band and other recent activity.

Come November, the Manics and Suede (known in the US as The London Suede due to copyright reasons) will be both be hitting the road once again – recreating the line-up of a European tour they did together back in 1993.

“I can’t think of a band I’d rather share a stage with than Manic Street Preachers,” said Suede frontman Brett Anderson. “They have long been an inspiration to us, and I know there are thousands of Suede fans who feel the same. It’s nearly 30 years since we last played together and I think these shows are going to be something really special.”

For the upcoming tour, Bradfield promised that the Manics would deliver “a banging greatest hits set – as simple as that”.

Looking back on their joint 1994 jaunt back when the Manics were promoting their seminal third album ‘ The Holy Bible’ , Bradfield told NME: “God almighty, that’s a long time ago, isn’t it? I vividly remember those gigs because Richey [Edwards, now missing guitarist] was coming back from what you might call his emotional event and was insisting that he wanted to come on the road. We were treading softly with Richey at some points, and Suede had lost Bernard Butler as their guitarist and were going through the transition of Richard Oakes coming into the band.

“I remember just looking at them and thinking, ‘Wow, are they going to survive after losing Bernard?’ Because he was such a brilliant guitarist and musical architect. He had that chemistry of writing with Brett and left big shoes to fill. I remember being obsessed with ‘Dog Man Star’ (1994) when it came out, which is such an amazing album that I used to listen to all the time.

Asked if that provided inspiration for the Manics when they relaunched in 1996 after guitarist and Richey Edwards’ disappearance, Bradfield replied: “I suppose so. I forgot that we could be included in such a list, I suppose. The difference is that we never replaced our lost member, but we never really thought about people watching us to see if we could continue without someone as vital as Richey. I never thought about the bloodsport of watching to see if we’d fail!”

The European tour with Suede were among the Manics’ final gigs with Edwards, which Bradfield said he looks back upon fondly.

“At the end of that tour, it became apparent that touring would be harder for Richey than he realised,” Bradfield told NME . “It was quite an awkward time, but it was also filled with good memories. Some nights, Richey was marking the shows out of 10 and he’d come off and say, ‘That was a nine!’ It almost seemed like it was still part of his lifeblood and quite fulfilling for us. For the four of us to be stood there for ‘The Holy Bible’ and people not quite knowing what it meant yet, we were so unified physically, sonically, and aesthetically.”

Both bands are survivors of the ’90s – as well as alumni of the NME Godlike Genius Award – but Bradfield also noticed a greater “symmetry” between the Manics and Suede.

“A lot of bands were quite short on glamour at that point [in the early 90s],” he said. “They shared the same DNA with us of trading on an underground customised glamour. They had these dystopian, J.G. Ballard landscapes in a lot of the songs, so along those lines we definitely fitted. We were both quite visceral live bands too. Brett is one loud motherfucker on stage! They kind of share the same path as us. They’ve been through a few things and they’re still here.”

The Manics and Suede were also lumped in with the Britpop movement of the ’90s. Suede had always vocally rejected their place in the genre , while Bradfield said they were able to “switch off to stuff like that”

“We’d been around before most of those bands, except Blur,” he said. “We knew that ‘Motorcycle Emptiness’, ‘La Tristessa’, ‘Faster’, ‘Revol’, ‘Motown Junk’ and ‘You Love Us’ had existed way before Britpop had ever been a twinkle in anyone’s reproductive systems. We knew that we were apart from it, but when we got co-opted into it we weren’t bothered at all. It meant that we played to bigger audiences, sold more records and reached more people. Then all these people knew the lyrics to ‘Faster’ and ‘A Design For Life’.

“In politics you say you need to win the middle ground, you need to give up a part of your soul. Suddenly we were winning the middle ground and hadn’t given up any part of our soul.”

Meanwhile, last week saw Manic Street Preachers release the 21st anniversary edition of their divisive 2001 album ‘Know Your Enemy ‘ – described as a “radically reimagined director’s cut” of their sixth record, entirely remixed and reconstructed to form two separate albums as the band originally planned. ‘Door To The River’ forms the softer side of the album, with ‘Solidarity’ containing the rockier edge.

“It really bugged me because I knew what we intended and I take most of the blame for steering Nicky [Wire, bassist and lyrics] and Sean [Moore] drums away from the two album concept,” Bradfield told NME of the record’s initial 2001 release. “We’d already done that with the first one, there was always a complication or a concept with us and we finally had this massive success behind us with ‘Everything Must Go’ and ‘This Is My Truth Tell Me Yours’ – why would we want to mess that up by doing two separate albums?”

He continued: “Now that I play it like this, I know we’ve got more great albums in our canon that we were missing. I just didn’t know what ‘Know Your Enemy’ was, and now I do. It’s a sort of creative peak, it’s us indulging ourselves and trying to come to terms with our complicated worldview and our personal feelings. Sometimes that doesn’t lead to the greatest hits, but you can make a great album. At the time, we didn’t present the complication of what we were trying to convey. Now we have, and it’s richer. Everything has been remixed, it’s simpler, and clearer, and everything is in context.”

‘Know Your Enemy’ also contained various anti-American themes, and saw the band launch the record with a controversial show in Cuba in front of Fidel Castro.

“You realise how you have a complicated love affair with America,” Bradfield said of his thoughts on the US today. “There are so many positive things that come from it, whether it be literature, film, music or just the aesthetic or post-war design. You can’t stand on stage most of your life with a Gibson Les Paul guitar and not realise what America has given you, culturally.

“There’s also a flipside where there’s a great dividing conflict like the San Andreas Fault. It causes tension. The experiment can still hurt itself by making strange decisions sometimes.”

Bradfield said he “didn’t know” if the Manics would be playing any special ‘Know Your Enemy’ shows in the UK, but that some progress had been made on the follow-up to 2021’s acclaimed ‘ The Ultra Vivid Lament ‘ – which came out a year ago this week.

“We’ve written some songs, but we have no idea what they mean yet, no concept, no blueprint,” he said. “I have no fucking idea. We’re focussing on going to America at the moment. Nick’s new solo album is finished though and he’s just deciding how to put it out. It’s brilliant. He should just fucking put it out.”

Asked if he’d make another solo album after dropping his second effort ‘ Even In Exile ‘ back in 2020, he said: “I’d like to do something a bit more commercial perhaps, if I did another solo record. The last thing was a concept record all about Chilean revolutionary’ Victor Jara and the people and history around him.

“I loved doing that and not having to write a hit. If I did something solo again, I’d like to go a bit more Blondie , write some hits, and maybe work with another singer.”

Suede -- including, from from left, Mat Osman, Neil Codling and Brett Anderson -- have a new album, "Autofiction" out and bring their first U.S. tour in more than two decades to the Warfield in San Francisco on Nov. 7. (Stuart C. Wilson/Getty Images archives)

The amazing Britpop act has played exactly one U.S. date over the last 25 years — when it appeared at the 2011 Coachella festival.

Beyond that, one has to go all the way back to 1997 for the last time the group toured North America.

No wonder fans on this side of the Pond are so excited about seeing London Suede (the band goes by Suede in Britain) on its co-headlining trek with Manic Street Preachers. The tour touches down Nov. 7 at the Warfield in San Francisco . Showtime is 8 p.m. and tickets are $45-$99.95, axs.com .

The group is touring in support of its newly released ninth album, the energetic and feisty “Autofiction,” which stands tall among the best albums of 2022.

I recently had the chance to talk with bassist and founding member Mat Osman about the band’s long overdue return to the Bay Area. Well, at least the person I talked with claimed to be Mat Osman … .

Q: OK, how do I know this is really Mat and not (London Suede vocalist) Brett Anderson pretending to be Mat? Say something that Mat would say that Brett definitely would never say.

A: (Laughs) The bass is the most important instrument in any band.

Q: And the bassist is the most attractive member in any band as well, right?

A: Exactly. You are entirely right.

Q: You know I’m just goofing around here — because you use to do some of Brett’s interviews back in the day, right? You would pretend you were Brett.

A: I have done that in the past. Not so much now that people know what we sound like. But, yeah, I have done that. I sat there and had to listen to them talk about how great he is.

Q: What are your thoughts about finally heading back to the U.S.?

A: Actually, I’m really excited. It feels like a brand new country for us in a way — it’s been so long.

It feels weirdly exotic. There are loads of cities on (the itinerary) that we have never been to before.

I don’t really know what American audiences are going to be like this time around. So, it feels genuinely quite strange and exciting.

Q: Why has it taken so long for the band to America? I mean, you’ve certainly been playing a lot of gigs in other places.

A: We just could never really make it work in a sensible way. One of the things about playing the states is that, to do it properly, you have to virtually live there. You have to come over and do your six months there, you know, if you want to do the U2, Depeche Mode kind of thing. We just didn’t really want to. We never really wanted to do those massive tours.

Q: Yeah, those must really be tough on a band.

A: After kind of 1996 — when we toured and we toured and we toured and it kind of killed us — we’ve tried since to be a bit more discriminating.

Then things kind of took off in Asia. We spent a lot of time in Japan and China and places like that.

Every time we tour, we talk about (playing the U.S.) and we’ve never been able to make it work — put on the kind of show we wanted to do — until this year.

Q: You sure you aren’t just mad at the U.S. since your gear got stolen in Boston toward the end of your last tour in 1997?

A: Yeah, it was very disappointing — because we never got it back. But to be honest, the two shows we did acoustically, while we were kind of like desperately trying to buy new gear, were two of my favorite ever American gigs.

The one we did in L.A., we said, “Anybody who wants their money back can have it.” No one did. I remember (that show) incredibly fondly.

In those situations, you need a little love from the audience and a little bit of them helping you along. And I remember that night being a really special night — the crowd was so great.

Q: Do you have a bit of a love-hate relationship with the U.S. given that Boston incident as well as the need to go by the name London Suede here?

A: Not with the audiences there. The audiences were always great. But, yeah, it felt really strange. It’s one of those things that happens sometimes. It never seemed to fit, really.

Q: Do you have any regrets about how the whole U.S. name change thing went down? Would you do anything different?

A: I don’t know what we could do. Our hands were incredibly tied. I don’t really want to talk about it in any detail.

Q: If you would have gone by Suede UK, as opposed to London Suede, at least it would have been easier to find you in the record store for people looking for Suede. Plus, you’d be right by Stone Roses, as opposed to Loggins and Messina.

A: That’s so true. We never thought of that. That was really dumb of us.

Q: The new album is fantastic. And it feels very different than the two previous ones. What was the goal this time around?

A: We just made two kind of like cerebral, kind of quite complicated studio albums. We just wanted to make something that felt a bit more live.

We always work out the songs live on the road — after we’ve released them — and suddenly it’s kind of like (we figure out) how they could’ve been more aggressive and more direct.

And we just wanted to try and capture that. I think we are a very different beast live. There is a kind of an aggression there and a spirit that I’m not sure we’ve ever really captured on record. It was an attempt to do that.

Q: But this wasn’t the album that you originally thought you’d release. Didn’t you have a bunch of material that you ended up shelving?

A: We always do. As you get older, the danger is always repeating yourself. There were tons of stuff that we wrote that was really good, and we were excited about, but at the end of the day you go, “Yeah, but did we do this better on ‘Dog Man Star?’ Did we do this better on ‘Bloodsports’?” And if the answer is yes, then we just scrap it.

We had the album kind of finished. It was a slightly more varied album — a couple more ballads and stuff. But because we knew we didn’t want to release it until we could properly play live, we started writing another record.

I think (the earlier batch of material) would have still been a good record. But it wouldn’t have been quite as focused as this one is. It almost sounds like a brand new Suede.

Q: What will happen to the other material?

A: We’ll never go back to it. We do this all the time. You just have to keep moving forward all the time. It’s a good thing to throw stuff away.

In my heart of hearts, I still feel like our perfect record — the best record — is still ahead of us.

Q: What are your thoughts about touring with the Manic Street Preachers?

A: It’s going to be great. The last time we played with them — ’94, was it? I’ve got nothing but love for them. To have gone on this long and still just be making great music and still putting on great live shows. I know how hard it is. I mean, it broke us. We had to take a break from it.

Q: This double bill probably plays the O2 and other big arenas in the U.K, right? But it’s playing theaters in the U.S. Is that fun for you?

A: You know what? I really don’t care where we play. It’s all about the crowd. It really is.

It doesn’t really matter whether there are 100 or 30,000 of them. If people are getting into it then I’m having a good time. A good gig is always about the audience.

I’m pretty agnostic about venues. It’s the people who make it, rather than the place.

Q: Suede’s first album turns 30 next year. Does it feel like it’s been that long to you?

A: It really doesn’t. Partly because we still play those songs. They are just part of me.

Those songs — they have a spirit to them and a heart to them that I think still makes sense today. It doesn’t feel like a generation ago at all.

Q: Well, Mat — if, indeed, this is Matt and not Brett pretending to be Mat — I just want to say thank you and I’m looking forward to seeing the band in San Francisco.

A: (Laughs) I’m really looking forward to it. I love San Francisco so much. We always have such good time there. It’s such a music city and it’s so anglophile.

Suede and Manic Street Preachers Announce 2022 North American Tour

“I can’t think of a band I’d rather share a stage with than the Manic Street Preachers,” Suede vocalist Brett Anderson said in a press statement. “They have long been an inspiration to us, and I know there are thousands of Suede fans who feel the same. It’s nearly 30 years since we last played together and I think these shows are going to be something really special.”

“We first toured with Suede in 1994 when we played with them all across Europe,” Manic Street Preachers added. “Back then, it always felt like both our bands shared a certain kind of kinship, both aesthetically and historically. It still feels that way now, nearly three decades later.”

This Friday (September 16), Suede are releasing the new album Autofiction . The follow-up to 2018’s The Blue Hour has been led by the singles “ She Still Leads Me On ,” “ 15 Again ,” and “ That Boy on the Stage .”

The London Suede, Manic Street Preachers Tour North America in 2022

Tina Benitez-Eves

Updated:

This fall, alt Brit rockers The London Suede and Manic Street Preachers are co-headlining their first-ever tour in North America together, which will kick off in Vancouver on Nov. 3 before concluding in Toronto on Nov. 24.

Both bands left their indelible marks in the early ’90s straight off their debut albums—Manic Street Preachers’ Generation Terrorists in 1992 and Suede in 1993.

Videos by American Songwriter

On hiatus for nearly a decade since 2002, The London Suede (also known as Suede) reunited with a show at London’s Royal Albert Hall in 2010 and followed up with their sixth album Bloodsports in 2013, along with Night Thoughts in 2016, and 2018 release The Blue Hour . Suede is set to release its ninth album Autofiction (BMG) on Sept. 16.

Manic Street Preachers have consistently continued to record together, even following the 1995 disappearance of guitarist Richey Edwards. Singer James Dean Bradfield, bassist Nicky Wire, and drummer Sean Moore regrouped shortly after, and the band has released 14 albums since their debut, including their most recent The Ultra Vivid Lament in 2021.

Individually, Suede and Manic Street Preachers have toured Europe and the U.K. extensively with fewer dates in North America. Both bands will perform songs from their entire catalog spanning 30 years. The London Suede last performed in the U.S. in 2011 at Coachella, while Manic Street Preachers last toured North America in April 2015. Both bands first toured together in Europe in 1994.

“I can’t think of a band I’d rather share a stage with than the Manic Street Preachers,” said Suede frontman Brett Anderson. “They have long been an inspiration to us, and I know there are thousands of Suede fans who feel the same. It’s nearly 30 years since we last played together and I think these shows are going to be something really special.”

Manic Street Preachers added, “We first toured with Suede in 1994 when we played with them all across Europe. Back then, it always felt like both our bands shared a certain kind of kinship, both aesthetically and historically. It still feels that way now, nearly three decades later.”

The band added, “This joint tour feels like a fantastic opportunity for both our sets of fans to share an amazing live experience. And to do this in the USA and Canada in 2022 makes it even more special as our tours there are so rare these days. We truly can’t wait.”

The London Suede and Manic Street Preachers Announce North American 2022 Co-Headlining Tour

The post The London Suede and Manic Street Preachers Announce North American 2022 Co-Headlining Tour appeared first on Consequence .

The London Suede and Manic Street Preachers are hitting the road together. The UK ’90s stalwarts have announced a co-headlining tour, making a rare trek across North America in November 2022.

The 12-date outing begins on November 3rd in Vancouver.

“I can’t think of a band I’d rather share a stage with than the Manic Street Preachers,” The London Suede’s Brett Anderson says in a press release. “They have long been an inspiration to us, and I know there are thousands of Suede fans who feel the same. It’s nearly 30 years since we last played together and I think these shows are going to be something really special.”

Manic Street Preachers added: “We first toured with Suede in 1994 when we played with them all across Europe. Back then, it always felt like both our bands shared a certain kind of kinship, both aesthetically and historically. It still feels that way now, nearly three decades later. This joint tour feels like a fantastic opportunity for both our sets of fans to share an amazing live experience. And to do this in the USA and Canada in 2022 makes it even more special as our tours there are so rare these days. We truly can’t wait.”

The London Suede will release their ninth studio album Autofiction this Friday, September 16th. Last year, Manic Street Preachers released their fourteenth studio album, The Ultra Vivid Lament .

Suede and Manic Street Preachers team up for North American tour

As if 2022 couldn’t get any stranger, the unthinkable has happened: Suede will be touring North America later this year, their first on these shores in 25 years.

The enduring British band and Britpop kickstarters — begrudgingly known as The London Suede in the United States — have unveiled a 12-date co-headlining tour with the Manic Street Preachers . The joint headlining tour, where the bands will rotate headliner status, stretches across November, beginning November 3 in Vancouver and wrapping November 24 in Toronto. Tickets to all shows go on sale this Friday (September 16) at 10 a.m. local time; the same day Suede release new album Autofiction .

Towards the end of the run, Suede and the Manics play The Orpheum in Boston on November 22. It was in Boston, during a two-night stand at The Paradise Rock Club in May 1997 for the Coming Up Tour, where Suede’s gear was infamously stolen outside the Commonwealth Avenue venue, forcing them to perform acoustic on the second night. They have not returned since.

In fact, Suede have only returned to America once since that time — a one-off 2011 appearance at Coachella. Suede frontman Brett Anderson has long been lukewarm about a return to the States for a variety of reasons, most notably the legal issue surrounding their name (a local lounge singer sued the band in the ’90s; Anderson told me in 2013 the name has “always been the problem for us… that’s a problem, that name, I just can’t be known under that name”).

But with a new album on the way and a pairing with the Manics — revisiting an infamous mid-’90s tour together that was one of the first for Suede guitarist Richard Oakes after replacing the seemingly irreplaceable Bernard Butler, and one of Richey Edwards’ last jaunts with the Manics before disappearing in February ’95 — the opportunity seems to good to pass up.

“I can’t think of a band I’d rather share a stage with than the Manic Street Preachers,” says Anderson in a press release. “They have long been an inspiration to us, and I know there are thousands of Suede fans who feel the same. It’s nearly 30 years since we last played together and I think these shows are going to be something really special.”

Manic Street Preachers add: “We first toured with Suede in 1994 when we played with them all across Europe. Back then, it always felt like both our bands shared a certain kind of kinship, both aesthetically and historically. It still feels that way now, nearly three decades later… This joint tour feels like a fantastic opportunity for both our sets of fans to share an amazing live experience. And to do this in the USA and Canada in 2022 makes it even more special as our tours there are so rare these days. We truly can’t wait.”

Rare, indeed.

Manic Street Preachers And The London Suede Announce North American Tour

Two of the UK’s most enduring and influential bands have announced a joint headline tour of North America for November. The London Suede and Manic Street Preachers both rose to prominence in the early 90s on the back of indisputably brilliant debut albums – 1992’s Generation Terrorists and 1993’s Suede – and electrifying live shows. Over the course of the next several years they would grow from punk rock youthquakers to arena-filing rock stars, earning their positions as national treasures in the pantheon of British music. Their first ever co-headlining tour kicks off in Vancouver, Canada on November 3rd.

Beloved by music fans on both sides of the Atlantic, The London Suede took a hiatus to work on other projects between 2002 and 2013, returning with the acclaimed Bloodsports album, while Manic Street Preachers continued to record together, releasing a string of hit albums, but rarely visiting the USA and Canada. Recognized as two of the most iconic bands of their generation this double headline tour is a rare and unmissable treat for music fans.

The London Suede (known simply as Suede around the world and the Manics will be performing songs from their full catalog, giving North American audiences a unique chance to experience fiercely loved classics from the last 30 years. The London Suede release their ninth album, Autofiction, on September 16th on BMG. They last performed in the US at Coachella in 2011. Manic Street Preachers released their fourteenth studio album, the UK #1 The Ultra Vivid Lament, last year. They last toured North America in April 2015.

The London Suede’s Brett Anderson says, “I can’t think of a band I’d rather share a stage with than the Manic Street Preachers. They have long been an inspiration to us, and I know there are thousands of Suede fans who feel the same. It’s nearly 30 years since we last played together and I think these shows are going to be something really special.”

“This joint tour feels like a fantastic opportunity for both our sets of fans to share an amazing live experience. And to do this in the USA and Canada in 2022 makes it even more special as our tours there are so rare these days. We truly can’t wait.”

Manic Street Preachers emerged from the Welsh Valleys in 1990 as a fully formed idea. Their plan was simple. They would release one glorious, sprawling debut album that would sell more copies than Appetite For Destruction, then they would split up. Generation Terrorists didn’t sell 16 million copies, and Manic Street Preachers didn’t split up. Instead, they set out on a unique path that made them one of the UK’s most fiercely adored rock bands for the last three decades, a position cemented by 1994’s peerless album The Holy Bible.

After the disappearance of guitarist Richey Edwards ahead of a 1995 U.S. tour, singer James Dean Bradfield, bassist Nicky Wire and drummer Sean Moore regrouped and rebuilt the band. 1996’s Everything Must Go was a masterstroke of reinvention. It would go on to sell over two million copies. Over the next two decades, Manic Street Preachers would explore multiple creative paths with a string of lauded albums and 2021’s The Ultra Vivid Lament saw the band’s return to the top of the UK album charts. Variously influenced by bereavement, the UK’s public school system and ABBA, and featuring Sunflower Bean’s Julia Cumming and one of the last vocal performances from the legendary Mark Lanegan, the beautifully realized album was a stunning return to form that saw Manic Street Preachers finish the year with a series of arena shows that ended up feeling like celebratory parties after two years of on-off lockdowns. That album – and those shows – proved more than anything that their idea, fully formed in the Valleys all those years ago, had been a stroke of genius.

An exhilarating reunion at London’s Royal Albert Hall in 2010. Three incredible and by turn bombastic, expansive and vital new records in 2013’s Bloodsports, 2016’s Night Thoughts and 2018’s The Blue Hour. Infinite shows and festivals all over the planet. And now the raucous physicality of new album Autofiction. Since reforming, The London Suede have reminded us again and again that, beyond the breakthroughs and breakdowns, the trends and the bends, their brilliantly ascorbic, urgent, passionate songs have lasted the test of time. And ravenous artistic compulsion propels them ever forward.

So, in 2010, seven years after winding down, The London Suede unexpectedly wound up again. And “wound up” is about right for this band. Their return triggered a flood of memories; frenzied performances, high-wire ambition, life-changing impact. For once, the headline “The Best New Band In Britain” was warranted, positioned over their photo on the cover of Melody Maker. Top 10 crasher “Animal Nitrate” was followed by Suede, the biggest selling UK album debut since Frankie Goes To Hollywood’s Welcome To The Pleasuredome and, soon, winner of the Mercury Music prize. The London Suede were trailblazers, innovators, cultural aggregators, and everyone wanted a piece.

If anything, Britpop generated The London Suede’s next phase. The next album would be, “a lot stranger”. With Bernard Butler now engrossed by Joy Division and Scott Walker, the next single “Stay Together” weighed in at eight intensely dramatic minutes. But ironically, the partnership was ripped apart by attendant pressures on two quite different personalities and Bernard quit before Dog Man Star was even released. Dog Man Star topped the UK charts but was symbolically knocked off by Oasis’ Definitely Maybe. Bernard replacement Richard Oakes fitted The London Suede’s aesthetic of transforming your grotty reality, plus “he brought unity to the band,” Brett Anderson recalls. “We became a little gang. And he had the ability to make the kind of album we wanted.”

The gang became five when Simon Gilbert’s cousin Neil Codling also joined, bringing songwriting nous, insouciant presence and perfect cheekbones. Anyone doubting The London Suede’s chances of surviving Bernard were rocked when the resulting Coming Up, The London Suede’s pop zenith, charted at number one in the UK and spawned an astounding 4 top ten hits.The London Suede’s fourth album Head Music made more progress, toward a more electronic-rhythmic band. When Neil left, and Brett finally admitted drugs had got the better of him, something had stalled. Not even a cleaned-up Brett could salvage the next album A New Morning.

Brett’s escape was to announce The London Suede were on sabbatical. He and Bernard soon formed The Tears and released Here Come The Tears, but Brett’s three pastoral, personal solo albums indicate where his heart truly lies. As does The London Suede’s reunion. When Teenage Cancer (a charity Brett has championed since his mum died) asked if The London Suede would play a benefit, everyone – including a resurgent Neil – agreed the time felt right. After two intimate warm-ups, the Royal Albert Hall show was astonishing to even fervent fans, to feel the tension between them and The London Suede hadn’t dropped an iota.

Fast forward to September 16th 2022 and The London Suede release Autofiction, their punk album. A record that crackles with the sort of exuberant fire familiar to anyone who has seen the band live in recent years. If 30 years ago “The Drowners” was a rattling anthem for the blurred sexuality and vivacity of unusual youth, then Autofiction’s grappling with concerns of a different point in life sound no less vital. “It does feel like a new page to me,” says Anderson. “I always thought of the first three records as a trilogy in a way, and the last three too. Autofiction has a natural freshness, it’s where we want to be.” And where The London Suede want to be is, in a way, the same place as they were when they began 30 years ago – a group of people living off the raw sensation of making a racket in a room.

The London Suede Release New Studio Album 'Autofiction'

The London Suede will be kicking off their tour on November 3.

The London Suede have released their ninth studio album Autofiction today. In celebration, The London Suede began a series of Autofiction launch shows last night with a high energy performance at Kingston Upon Thames' Pryzm for Banquet Records, and will play live this evening at Rough Trade East in Shoreditch.

LATEST NEWS

The new album, which includes BBC 6 Music and Radio 2 playlist mainstays "She Still Leads Me On" and "15 Again," is already receiving widespread critical acclaim. Autofiction has been heralded as "their best album in decades" by Uncut, "superb" by The Times, "vital" by DIY Magazine and "wildly addictive" by Classic Pop. MOJO praised Autofiction "so moving, the punk ferocity protecting a deeply vulnerable core", Record Collector championed "revitalisation" whilst the NME confirmed, "this is a band with a lust for life.

The London Suede's aim was to create an album capturing the unique power and energy that exists between the band and their audience at gigs. A theme that's resonated since the day they announced Autofiction, debuting the bold opening track "She Still Leads Me On" live on stage at a surprise performance in Brussels that was live streamed for fans.

Following the Autofiction launch shows over the coming week, in November The London Suede will return to America for the first time since 2011 for an anticipated co-headline tour with Manic Street Preachers.

The London Suede's return to the live stage continues with a UK headline tour through March 2023, performing classics, hits, and tracks from Autofiction. The tour begins at Bath's Forum on March 3 and closes at O2 Academy Brixton on March 25, 30 years after The London Suede made their iconic debut performance at the London venue in May 1993.

Earlier this month The London Suede performed under the guise of Crushed Kid - an idea that saw the band taking the 'back to basics' nature of Autofiction to the extreme by playing live under a fake name. After sparking rumours following a week of mysterious online activity, including releasing new music under the moniker, Crushed Kid made their debut performance at London's 300 capacity MOTH Club, followed by a set at Manchester's Deaf Institute.

Fans were treated to a surprise preview of The London Suede's ninth studio album in its entirety. No encore, no greatest hits. The set saw The Telegraph champion The London Suede "a band reborn" whilst the Evening Standard confirmed, "like all the best new bands, Crushed Kid left us wanting more", The Guardian praised "a euphoric return", and CLASH heralded the set an "unrelenting display of where The London Suede stand in 2022".

The London Suede recently released a companion piece to the new album with their first short film production, Autofiction: A Short Film. Directed by Katie Lambert (MrMr Films) and created in collaboration with The London Suede, the production was described as "essential and immediate" by AnOther Magazine, and explores the complexities of memory, the perceived truth, communication and anxiety in human relationships. Themes at the core of The London Suede's new album, which, as its title suggests, is one of Brett Anderson's most personal records yet.

"Autofiction has a natural freshness, it's where we want to be," Anderson says. And where The London Suede want to be is, in a way, the same place as they were when they began 30 years ago - a group of people living off the raw sensation of creating music together in a room.

In a move that recalled their most formative years, the writing process saw The London Suede becoming like a new band again - lugging their own gear to a Kings Cross rehearsal space, collecting a key, setting up, and starting to play. Later recording live at Konk studios in North London, The London Suede teamed with long-time collaborator Ed Buller. Ed first worked with the band producing their debut single 'The Drowners', which sees its 30th anniversary this year.

The London Suede will perform Autofiction at a series of very special shows through September and October 2022. This is a rare chance to see the band live in some of the UK and Europe's most intimate venues - including two nights at London's Electric Ballroom which sold out in twenty seconds. In-store concerts and signing appearances at UK record shops over the next week are also detailed below.

Kamala Harris arrives in San Francisco for fundraiser with Nancy Pelosi

V ice President Kamala Harris arrived in San Francisco on Saturday night ahead of a fundraiser with House Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi that is expected to raise more than $12 million from some of the Bay Area’s top Democratic donors.

Nearly 700 people are slated to attend the sold-out Sunday fundraiser at Nob Hill’s ritzy Fairmont Hotel, according to a campaign official. Tickets range between $3,300 and $50,000, with contributors of $500,000 getting named as a chair of the event.

Harris arrives in San Francisco straight off of a five-day tour introducing her new vice presidential pick, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, who helped her pull in $36 million in the 24 hours after she made him her running mate. That’s on top of the $310 million that the campaign raised in July, fueled by a surge of donations after President Joe Biden announced his decision to drop out of the race.

On Saturday evening, Harris was greeted at the tarmac by San Francisco Mayor London Breed and Kounalakis.

“So proud to have the Future President of the United States back in San Francisco where it all started,” Breed wrote on social media site X.

Another campaign fundraiser is scheduled for Aug. 17 in Mill Valley, though neither Harris or Walz are expected to make an appearance there.

Mayor issues homeless order: Bus tickets before anything as shelters near full

A woman in a purple jacket speaks passionately. Behind her, a tent with a "No Trespassing" sign and three white buses overlap a U.S. map background.

Copy link to this article

With shelters near capacity and “aggressive” encampment sweeps underway , many wonder what the city’s plan is to address the homelessness crisis. The answer so far: bus tickets.

Mayor London Breed issued an executive order Thursday directing all city workers to offer homeless people trips out of town before providing any other services, such as housing or shelter, The Standard has learned.

Breed said the number of homeless people moving to San Francisco from other states and California counties increased from 28% in 2019 to 40% of the total homeless population this year, according to data her office shared exclusively with The Standard. Of those surveyed, 37% who were previously housed say they lived in San Francisco for less than a year when they became homeless, up from 15% in 2019. The number of people who lived in SF for more than 10 years before becoming homeless dropped to 14% from 43% in 2019.

The data were collected from the city’s point-in-time count, which began in January. Some data from the count have come under fire for being inaccurate and confusing . “We’ve made significant progress in housing many long-time San Franciscans who became homeless,” Breed said in a statement. “But we are seeing an increase in people in our data who are coming from elsewhere. Today’s order will ensure that all our city departments are leveraging our relocation programs to address this growing trend.”

Here are the key points of Breed’s executive order:

• Mandates all city and contracted staff who directly engage with individuals experiencing homelessness to offer access to one of the city’s relocation assistance programs before offering any other services, including housing and shelter.

• Requires first responders, including police officers, firefighters, and paramedics, to provide information handouts on the city’s relocation services and a contact number.

• Establishes a tracking system that will publish data measuring the effectiveness of each program.

The city previously had at least two programs to relocate homeless people: Journey Home and Homeward Bound, which now are effectively combined. The mayor’s order brings all relocation services under one umbrella and connects homeless people with loved ones in other counties. Beyond bus tickets, the program offers cash assistance, airfare and help with relocation.

The order follows a recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling that cleared the path to partially overturn a Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals injunction that limited how aggressive the city could be in its encampment sweeps.

Shelters nearly full

The city’s shelters were 94% full as of Thursday morning, with 307 beds available. The city typically keeps its shelters below 95% capacity to make room for emergency admissions from hospitals, jails and outreach operations. In June, 575 people applied for the city’s shelter waiting list, and the average wait time among the 112 people who landed a bed was 12 days. There were 2,913 people living on city streets and 1,442 people living in vehicles in January, according to the point-in-time data.

Several workers in protective suits and a police officer assist a person in dismantling a tent under a bridge, with a truck and other workers in the background.

On Tuesday, The Standard witnessed an unscheduled encampment sweep under the Central Freeway. Video of the sweep shows a police officer telling a man, who was scrambling to gather his belongings, that encampments are “no more” due to orders from Breed and Gov. Gavin Newsom. City officials say all people who were affected by the operation were offered shelter.

Emily Cohen, spokesperson for the Department of Homelessness and Housing, said demand for shelter is not expected to increase as enforcement ramps up. But she would not elaborate on the city’s plan if demand does rise.

“We know that we don’t have enough shelter, but I don’t have a plan that I can immediately share for how we might expand shelter in the event that we reach 98% or 99% occupation,” Cohen said. “We are certainly always looking at ways to expand shelter.”

SF, neighbors gear up for Outside Lands Music Festival this weekend

Since it began, Outside Lands has contributed more than $1 billion to the local economy.

SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) -- It's a celebration that's uniquely San Francisco. On Friday, Outside Lands will kick off in Golden Gate Park for the 16th year, welcoming some of biggest artists in music.

"The Killers, Sabrina Carpenter, Post Malone doing a country set, which he hasn't done anywhere - and Sturgill Simpson," said Outside Lands co-founder, Allen Scott.

Besides the performances, attendees can expect a range of some of the best food and drink offered anywhere in the city.

And this year, among other new things, a recreation of San Francisco City Hall where yes - people can actually get married.

"And believe it or not, people have signed up to exchange their vows. If I had offered to marry my spouse of 20-something years at a music festival, I would not be married but to each his own," said Phil Ginsburg of the city's Recreation and Parks Department.

Outside Lands 2024: Here's a look at road closures for 3-day music event in SF's Golden Gate Park

Organizers say they're expecting as many as 75,000 people to descend on Golden Gate Park every day over the weekend, and that surge of people bringing a big economic boost for the entire city.

Mayor London Breed says beyond the money that the festival pumps into the city, Outside Lands helps establish San Francisco as a major center of entertainment around the nation.

"When people come here and they have these great experiences, it really just uplifts our city and people take that with them," Breed said.

But outside the confines of Golden Gate Park, not everyone is as excited.

For years, the festival has gotten pushback from many who live nearby over the behavior of some of those who attend.

"Don't really respect the cleanliness of the neighborhood, trash everywhere, do their business in front of my drive way," said Mandy Cook, who lives nearby.

Cook says while she supports the festival overall, the cleanup afterwards can be troublesome for neighbors.

Cook tells us while things have gotten better over recent years, she thinks there's still room for improvement.

"I think they can do a bit more. You know, in terms of like hiring more sanitary crews to clean up after the people are gone," Cook said.

3rd person detained over foiled attack on canceled Vienna Taylor Swift shows, official says

Updated on: August 9, 2024 / 9:47 AM EDT / CBS/AP

A third teenager has been arrested in connection with a foiled attack on now-canceled Taylor Swift concerts in Vienna, Austria's interior minister said Friday.

Gerhard Karner said an 18-year-old was taken into custody Thursday evening in Vienna after allegedly being in contact with the main suspect. Karner announced the arrest during an unrelated news conference Friday.

The 19-year-old main suspect and a 17-year-old were arrested Tuesday, while a 15-year-old was also interrogated but was not arrested. Officials had said Thursday afternoon that no additional suspects were being sought. They did not immediately offer further details Friday.

Authorities said the plot appeared to have been inspired by ISIS and al Qaeda. Investigators found bomb-making materials at one of the suspects' homes. Officials say a suspect has confessed to planning to "kill as many people as possible outside the concert venue."

Three sold-out concerts were canceled Wednesday because of the plot, devastating Swifties from across the globe. Many of them had spent thousands of dollars on travel and lodging in Austria's expensive capital city to attend the Eras Tour shows at the Ernst Happel Stadium.

TOPSHOT-AUSTRIA-US-MUSIC-POLICE-ARREST-SWIFT

Europe is enamored with the American superstar: The German town of Gelsenkirchen renamed itself "Swiftkirchen" before its mid-July concerts.

Concert organizers in Austria said they had expected up to 65,000 fans inside the stadium at each concert and as many as 30,000 onlookers outside, where authorities said the suspects planned to strike. The foiled attack was planned for Thursday or Friday, according to Karner.

Austrian Chancellor Karl Nehammer defended the decision to cancel the concerts, saying the arrests took place too close to the shows, scheduled for Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

"I understand very well that those who wanted to experience the concert live are very sad," Nehammer told a news conference Thursday. "Moms and dads are looking after their daughters and sons, who were full of enthusiasm and anticipation for this concert. But it's also important that in such serious moments as now, it's inevitable that safety comes first."

Swift is scheduled to perform at London's Wembley Stadium in five concerts between Aug. 15 and 20 to close the European leg of her record-setting Eras Tour.

London Mayor Sadiq Khan said that while he understood Vienna's reasons for canceling, "We're going to carry on." Khan said the capital's authorities were prepared for shows there following lessons learned from a 2017 attack at an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, England, that killed 22 people.

Then, a suicide bomber set up a knapsack with explosives in Manchester Arena. The bomb detonated at the end of Grande's concert as thousands of young fans were leaving the venue.

Last month, an attacker in England killed three girls and wounded 10 people in a knife attack during a Taylor Swift-themed dance and yoga class. Swift at the time said she was ''completely in shock'' over the violence.

In Austria, the main suspect confessed that he had started planning the attack in July, authorities said. The 19-year-old just a few weeks ago uploaded to the internet an oath of allegiance to the current leader of ISIS.

He was "clearly radicalized in the direction of the Islamic State [of Iraq and Syria] (ISIS) and thinks it is right to kill (what he considers) infidels," said Omar Haijawi-Pirchner, head of the Directorate of State Security and Intelligence.

Haijawi-Pirchner added that the suspect "wanted to carry out an attack in the area outside the stadium, killing as many people as possible using the knives or even using the explosive devices he had made."

During a raid of the suspect's home in Ternitz, south of Vienna, investigators found chemical substances and technical devices that indicated "concrete preparatory acts," said Franz Ruf, director general for public security at the Ministry of the Interior.

Authorities said they also found ISIS and al Qaeda material at the home of the second suspect, who is 17. That suspect, who has so far refused to talk, was employed a few days ago by a company providing unspecified services at the venue for the concerts.

Both teens were arrested Tuesday. Neither of their names was released, in line with Austrian privacy rules.

The suspects had undergone clear social changes recently, authorities said. The 19-year-old had quit his job but said he "still had big plans," while the other broke up with his girlfriend. Neither suspect appeared to have a ticket to any of the shows, Haijawi-Pirchner said.

No other suspects are being sought, though a 15-year-old who had been in contact with both suspects was also interrogated by police, Karner said.

"The situation is serious. But we can also say: A tragedy was prevented," he said.

Concert organizer Barracuda Music said in an Instagram post late Wednesday that it had "no choice but to cancel the three scheduled shows for everyone's safety."

Barracuda said all tickets would be refunded. The same message was posted under the Vienna dates on Swift's official website. Austrian rail operator OeBB in the meantime said that it would reimburse fans for unused train tickets for the concerts.

Swift has not spoken publicly about the plot or canceled shows. "Taylor Nation," a verified Instagram page widely believed to be run by her team, reposted the announcement from Barracuda Music in a "story," which is only visible for 24 hours. Her main account has not posted anything.

Swift's biggest fear has always been that such large-scale violence could take place at her concerts, the superstar told Elle magazine in 2019 ahead of her Lover Tour, which was ultimately canceled because of the coronavirus pandemic. The attack at Grande's concert, as well as a 2017 mass shooting at an outdoor country music festival on the Las Vegas Strip where 58 people were killed, worried Swift as she prepared to circle the globe.

"I was completely terrified to go on (the Lover Tour) this time because I didn't know how we were going to keep 3 million fans safe over seven months," she told the magazine. "There was a tremendous amount of planning, expense, and effort put into keeping my fans safe."

An official inquiry reported in 2023 that Britain's domestic intelligence agency, MI5, didn't act swiftly enough on key information and missed a significant opportunity to prevent the Manchester bombing, the deadliest extremist attack in the United Kingdom in recent years.

Terrorism expert Magnus Ranstorp, based at the Swedish Defense University in Stockholm, told The Associated Press by phone that any mass public event constitutes a potential threat now.

"We shouldn't be surprised that these extremely popular iconic popstars that attract a massive audience will also attract terrorists that want to create fear and destruction and mayhem," he said.

San Francisco Takes Harder Line Against Homeless Camps, Defying Its Reputation

Mayor London Breed has told city officials to issue citations and encourage homeless people to leave town by offering free bus tickets.

Four employees from San Francisco Public Works wearing neon vests dismantle a tent on a sidewalk.

By Heather Knight

Reporting from San Francisco

The homeless men who huddled in tents on a wide sidewalk near Golden Gate Park in San Francisco knew that city crews were coming to clear them out. But they did not budge.

They dozed. They bantered. One strummed a guitar. Fifteen times this year, the city has cleared the sidewalks near the local Department of Motor Vehicles office — and 15 times, the homeless campers have quickly returned.

But attempt No. 16 would be different, Mayor London Breed vowed. No longer would San Francisco allow homeless people to stay on the sidewalks if there was another place to sleep. The individuals camping around the D.M.V. branch had collectively turned down 89 offers of shelter this year, according to the mayor’s office, and Ms. Breed had had enough.

“We need some tough love on the streets of our city,” Ms. Breed said at a re-election campaign rally held four days before the Monday clear-out.

San Francisco has long had a reputation as a liberal bastion, a city that had hoped to solve its problems more through compassion than crackdowns. But with voters frustrated by homeless encampments, open drug use and a downtown that has lost some of its verve, Ms. Breed has taken a tougher approach as she fights for her political life in a hotly contested mayoral race.

Empowered by a recent Supreme Court decision and encouraged by Gov. Gavin Newsom of California, Ms. Breed, a Democrat, has vowed to aggressively clear encampments this month and has told police officers that they can cite homeless campers for illegal lodging if they refuse shelter, with jail time on the table.

The Police Department, whose chief reports to Ms. Breed, told officers in a memo on Wednesday that they can now cite people for violations that included sitting, lying or camping on sidewalks; obstructing people’s ability to walk in public spaces; and creating a public nuisance through conduct that is “offensive to the senses.”

On Thursday, Ms. Breed directed city officials to offer bus tickets to homeless people before providing them a shelter bed or other services. It was the starkest sign yet that San Francisco had changed its tack — and stood in contrast to Los Angeles , where leaders criticized Mr. Newsom for issuing an executive order last week encouraging them to sweep homeless encampments.

“San Francisco will always lead with compassion, but we cannot allow our compassion to be taken advantage of,” Ms. Breed said in her busing order. “We will not be a city with a reputation for being able to solve the housing and behavioral health needs of people across our country.”

On Monday afternoon, the mayor made a personal visit to the sidewalk alongside the D.M.V., a few days after homeless campers had been warned their tents would be cleared through notices that were stapled to nearby trees.

Ms. Breed was joined by about 30 city workers, including her aides and security detail, public health officials and eight police officers. Their numbers dwarfed the four homeless people who were staying put on the sidewalk.

Joel Beiswanger, 49, sat amid a pile of his belongings as the police officers stood nearby and watched him. Wearing a bright orange sweatshirt and pajama pants emblazoned with Santa Claus, he said he found shelters too stressful and had nowhere else to go. He said he has been homeless on and off since he was 14.

Mr. Beiswanger took issue with Ms. Breed’s statement last week that she wanted to make it “uncomfortable” for people to live on the street.

“Where are the bathrooms at? Showers? Where is there comfort?” he asked. “Every week, someone comes through and takes everything you own, no questions asked. I guess it’s how you get your votes.”

Emmanuel Siple, 48, woke up from a nap in a tent nearby. He said a drug and alcohol problem and divorce had led him to live on the streets, and he resented being “micromanaged” by city workers. The threat of jail won’t convince him to stay in a shelter, which already feels like jail, he said.

Ms. Breed did not engage with the homeless men, observing them from across an intersection. She said she did not want to be recorded by a group of activists for homeless rights who had shown up to monitor the clearing and take videos of the workers.

For years, San Francisco has struggled to deal with encampments crowding sidewalks, and the authorities have said that some tents have been used as cover to sell and consume drugs — particularly fentanyl, which has contributed to a spike in deadly overdoses. The city lacks enough affordable housing, drug treatment programs and hospital beds to address the misery, and voters are steamed.

The mayor told reporters last week that she was “excited” about the Supreme Court, dominated by Republican appointees, upholding the ban in Grants Pass, Ore., on homeless people sleeping outside. For several years, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, which oversees nine Western states including California, had blocked laws that made it illegal to camp when no shelter was available.

Governor Newsom’s recent order directed state officials to begin dismantling thousands of homeless encampments and urged local leaders to follow suit. Ms. Breed praised the enforcement approach, noting that her teams repeatedly offer shelter beds, but are turned down two-thirds of the time.

But advocates for homeless people called it cruel, saying it would do little to solve the underlying factors that lead to homelessness. City and county leaders in Los Angeles have criticized both the Supreme Court and Governor Newsom and vowed to solve homelessness in their own way, primarily by finding motel space and services for people before clearing them from the streets.

In San Francisco, however, a police officer this week told one homeless person that tents were being swept in the city because Ms. Breed and Mr. Newsom had declared “no more on the streets, no more encampments,” The San Francisco Standard reported .

Some of Ms. Breed’s challengers have criticized her approach. Aaron Peskin , president of the Board of Supervisors and the most liberal candidate in the mayoral race, said that he would add 2,000 shelter beds, fight evictions and boost the number of rent-controlled apartments.

“What is happening now is a quick and performative election-year gimmick,” he said.

At the D.M.V., activists had their own way of countering the sweep overseen by Ms. Breed. They parked a U-Haul van nearby and offered to store the men’s belongings in it until the city crews left. Ms. Breed, standing across the street, said they were only enabling homelessness and doing nothing to actually help.

Jeff Klein, 31, bought turkey and Swiss sandwiches for the men. Another activist gave them Oreo cookies. Mr. Klein said the city should have been spending its money on food and housing instead of paying for the workers involved in the clearing, most of whom did not engage with the homeless men or clean the camp.

“We have our values completely backward,” Mr. Klein said.

Lt. Wayman Young of the San Francisco Police has worked on the camp-clearing team for five years. He said that people living in tents in neighborhoods away from downtown are often disabled people, older citizens or teenage runaways — all of whom desperately need help.

Downtown is another story, he said, fueled mostly by the open-air drug trade. The team has found guns, knives, machetes and axes in the tents, as well as giant containers of urine and feces, rats, mold and drugs. Lt. Young said the police search the records of anyone who gets aggressive with them, and he estimated that roughly one in four have come back with warrants for crimes that ranged from car break-ins to sexual assault.

He said the new policy allowing citations will make it easier to keep sidewalks clear.

“We want them to go to shelter, and if they don’t, we have to enforce the law,” Lt. Young said. He added that those cited will be released on site and that it would be up to the district attorney to decide whether to charge them. Those with warrants will be taken to jail immediately.

In the first few days of the latest effort, city employees had 235 conversations with homeless people and removed 81 tents. Twenty-four people accepted a shelter bed, while the rest declined or did not respond. The police reported that they have made nine arrests, eight for outstanding warrants and one for illegal lodging, who was cited and released on site.

Among the arrested was Mr. Beiswanger, outside of the D.M.V., who had outstanding warrants for falsely identifying himself to the police and possessing methamphetamines. They took him to jail, and he has been released. He could not be reached for comment after leaving the camp.

The other homeless men by the D.M.V. loaded their belongings into the U-Haul van and wandered away. That, for the time being, was enough to avoid citations.

About an hour after the city crews left, the men retrieved their belongings, and carried them through Golden Gate Park to a different corner.

There, they erected a new encampment.
