"Whether it's soon is another matter."

Suede themselves recently announced their long awaited new album Bloodsports released March 18.

"It's about lust, it's about the chase, it's about the endless carnal game of love," Brett Anderson has said of the album.

01. Barriers
02. Snowblind
03. It Starts And Ends With You
04. Sabotage
05. For The Strangers
06. Hit Me
