5 AFTERNOONS WITH THE BLINDS DRAWN

Brett Anderson

LITTLE BROWN

The sequel to Coal Black Mornings that Anderson said he would never write, this exorcism of his Suede years tracked the band’s swift ascent to the NME front cover and slow decline into back-biting and drugs as their Britpop crown fell to “bands who waved flags and dropped their aitches”. Bitter, twisted, but very classy.
