The gigs will take place at O2 Academy Brixton in May.
Speaking to Xfm's Sunta lead singer Brett Anderson said he thinks running though entire albums live is a good thing for any band to do: "It's a challenge but I think it's quite nice.
Sometimes you can get quite used to just banging through the hits when your touring and I think just looking through your back catalogue and being challenged by it and having to work things out and engage with it in a different way is probably quite good for you as a musician."
It comes as Suede announce they are to release re-mastered and expanded versions of their five studio albums in June. Although original guitarist Bernard Butler has so far declined to part of the indie icons' reformations, Brett says he is still part of Suede's present, and the re-releases:
"I was emailing Bernard about demos from the first two albums this morning, strange things people haven't heard before the original four track demo of introducing the band. There's a couple of little oddities that we've found which are just studio outtakes."
He continues, "we've been talking a lot about it and getting together and doing some mastering, we did some mastering for the best of that was out last year." The O2 Academy Brixton dates are: MAY 19 - 'SUEDE' MAY 20 - 'DOG MAN STAR' MAY 21 - 'COMING UP' Tickets for the shows go on sale on Friday January 28th at 9am |
