Originally released 2 September 1996, ‘Coming Up’ marked a turning point in the band’s career. A then 18-year-old Richard Oakes was added to the recording lineup, and at the same time, the band pivoted their sound towards glamorous anthemic pop. The band remembers the album as their proving ground. Oakes says, “You’re at your most creative in a band if you’ve got something to kick against and ‘Coming Up’ was us doing that. It was like, ‘No, we’re not done. Just you watch.’” The reinvention of the band’s sound on the album was meant to assert Suede as an unforgettable and influential force to the masses. Keyboardist Neil Codling says, “That was always part of what Brett [Anderson, lead singer] was trying to do. He’s trying to poison the mainstream.” 

For their efforts, ‘Coming Up’ earned Suede their second Mercury Prize nomination. The Guardian gave the album 4/5 stars and it peaked at Number 1 on the Official UK Albums Charts when it released. Singles ‘Trash,’ ‘Beautiful Ones,’ ‘Filmstar,’ Saturday Night’ and ‘Lazy’ were all featured in the UK Top 10 and would become staples of Suede’s live sets for years to come. All of these tracks (and more) are to be featured on the forthcoming, ‘Coming Up’ 30 release.

‘Coming Up’ 30 will include a rare recording of ‘Beautiful Ones (Radio 1 Evening Session 29th August 1996)’ originally performed live at the BBC for Mark Radcliffe’s show. Additionally, the music video for ‘Beautiful Ones’ has been remastered to celebrate the anniversary, watch it below. 

Also getting restored are the iconic original artworks and designs for the album. The restoration has been lovingly done by the original design team in collaboration with Peter Saville and photographer Nick Knight. Additional content in the ‘Coming Up’ 30 release includes new sleeve notes by famed music journalist and biographer, Miranda Sawyer. 

Release formats for the album will include half-speed black vinyl, Pink and Blue blended coloured vinyl (as an indie exclusive), 5CD deluxe box set and digitally.

Suede will also be going on tour this autumn, co-headlining UK arenas with Manic Street Preachers. The tour begins on 28 October at Glasgow’s OVO Hydro Arena.
