Suede have announced a UK tour for 2026 that will see the band take their highly-anticipated tenth studio album, Antidepressants on the road for the first time.
Antidepressants has already received widespread acclaim, awarded five stars in MOJO who describe “a defiant, death-defying record – as much joy ride as memento mori”. Uncut heard “their most intoxicating, unhinged album since Coming Up”, Record Collector described the new record “thrilling and exhilarating”, and Classic Pop described an “intensely energetic” return. Current single ‘Dancing With The Europeans’ has been tipped “euphoric” by the NME whilst ‘Trance State’ heralded “a striking sense of direction” according to The Times.
Suede’s tenth album finds the Platinum-selling, Mercury Prize winning NME God Like Genius-certified giants of British independent music charged with the intensity that defines their live shows. Since the release of 2022’s Autofiction – Suede’s widely acclaimed ninth album and their highest-charting record in over 20 years, debuting at #2 in the UK Album Chart – the band has performed to the largest audiences of their career at shows in more than 14 different countries. Suede were described as “the most visceral live act on the planet today” by the London Evening Standard in a five star review of their summer 2024 Alexandra Palace concert last year. This fire and vitality is what has turbo-charged the Antidepressants sound.
Introducing Suede’s tenth album, Brett Anderson said: “If Autofiction was our punk record, Antidepressants is our post-punk record. It’s about the tensions of modern life, the paranoia, the anxiety, the neurosis. We are all striving for connection in a disconnected world. This was the feel I wanted the songs to have. The album is called Antidepressants. This is broken music for broken people.”
