Top 10 Suede Riffs

Рет қаралды 35,039

Жыл бұрын

This was requested to me ages ago, so I apologise for only getting around to it just now. I wasn't a fan of Suede at the time but I definitely am now. In fact, the inspiration for me wanting to get a Les Paul style guitar was from listening to the likes of Suede, T.Rex and Mick Ronson, so I could get that kind of sound. Though I'm still learning more about Suede, here are 10 riffs and songs that I really like. Feel free to suggest some more in the comments below!

I loved Suede in 1993 and still do today. It's incredible how they had one guitar genius leave the band, only to be replaced by another. Superb band.

yes! im a massive suede fan and it was such a joy to come across this vid today! stay together and the asphalt world are known to be suede's most pretentious and almost unforgivingly self-indulgent songs that go on (supposedly) way too long to accomodate butler's extensive solos. i adore them, don't listen to the articles. you should really check them out!

Simply amazing! Those guitar parts from Bernard Butler and Richard Oaks were like a voice. Memorable and tasteful. So classy and sexy in a time when heavy rock riffs got all the attention in the US. Thanks for that!

Suede are an underrated band in general and their b-sides are underrated even amongst their fans. Glad to see you included Killing of A Flashboy. My Insatiable One is a great song with a gorgeous guitar riff that ranks among their best work.

if you really want the Suede sound, a Gibson hollow-body is the way to go. Bernard used an ES-355, iirc. anyway, great selections-i used to have a theory that you could tell the songwriting form a band were in by the quality of their b-sides, and the fact that Killing of a Flashboy was a b-side really says something about how good Suede were at their peak

Suede has got lots of great guitar riffs, either by Bernard Butler or Richard Oakes. As usual you pick a few (great) deep cuts as Killing on a Flashboy and This Hollywood Life. Lesser known singles as well, like We Are the Pigs, Saturday Night and Filmstar. Their latest album is the best since Coming Up imho

@FingersOnAFretboard Жыл бұрын

"Bloodsports" has my vote for that ,but "Autofiction" IS a needed change from conceptual albums. Bigsby vibrola wiggles are necessary for many of these trademark riffs

I need to figure out some lessons. I have always loved the feel of Bernard and Richard's playing both, and would love to just be able to play around a neck and find riffs like that. It's not like shredding or even insanely complicated, but there's an understanding of chord structures, how to change them, and how to blend them into others, that I'm just not comprehending.

@@bloxsy_ The argument can be made that 1997's _Sci-Fi Lullabies_ is the best British album of the 1990s (Top 5, at least). Worth checking out. Some executable b-sides: - To The Birds (BB - super easy) - He's Dead (BB - also easy) - My Insatiable One (BB) - Whipsnade (BB) - Modern Boys (BB) - Every Monday Morning Comes (RO) - Have You Ever Been This Low? (RO) - Together (RO) - Bentswood Boys (RO) - Young Men (RO) Other great tracks & riffs: - Obsessions (RO) - Rent [live] (RO) - Let Go (RO) - Wastelands (RO) - Bored (RO) - Beautiful Loser (RO) - It Starts & Ends With You (RO) - The Tears - Autograph (BB) - The Tears - Refugees (BB) Bernard Butler's late '90s albums are underrated & feature some his best guitar work. Check out: - More Than You Thought - You Just Know - Has Your Mind Got Away? - Stay - Bye Bye - Autograph - People Move On
