NewsSuede / So Young seven-inch picture disc
Fourth and final single from ‘Suede’
As part of Demon Music’s Suede30 campaign, the label are issuing Suede’s first four singles as seven-inch picture discs, reproducing the original arresting cover images on the discs.
The fourth, and final, release in this series is ‘So Young’, originally issued on Nude Records on 17 May 1993. It reached No 22 in the UK singles chart.
The B-side to ‘So Young’ was ‘High Rising’ which didn’t appear on the Suede album. The new picture disc is strictly limited to 1000 units worldwide and is only available via the SDE shop and the official Suede store.
The ‘So Young’ seven-inch picture disc is released on 5 January 2024 via Demon Records. The far away release date is probably in part because ‘Metal Mickey’ (sold out) and ‘Animal Nitrate’ (still available) have both been delayed slightly. Pre-order ‘So Young’ via the shop using this link or the buttons (‘pre-order’) below.

These guys are the kings of reissues. Their fans must be broke.
I’ve got my fingers crossed for a SDE surround Blu Ray with SW mixes of Coming Up
Demon have the rights to it like Suede and SDE have worked with Demon & SW so I am hopeful.
I would prefer an Atmos mix for Dog Man Star first, although on the whole I am not entirely convinced that we would need Atmos mixes at all. I think Ed Bueller did an excellent job on all Suede albums he produced. His mixes are already quite immersive. I find that the SW Atmos mix for Suede lacks a bit of the raw, in your face signature that the original mix had. Maybe his mixes would work better for the first three albums after their come-back (Bloodsports, Night Thoughts and The Blue Hour)? Oh well, I will probably buy whatever new mix of whatever new album will be released. These vinyl replicas are not for me though.
I’m only interested in the stereo mixes really (including fold down of surround to stereo) but my main interest is access to a dynamic stereo mix without the use of aggressive limiters. The original CD stereo master of Suede was fairly limited and loud and this will have contributed to the raw in your face sound. I really like Steve’s stereo mix as no limiting was applied.
Of course the real question, which I’ve debated with others here, is whether the mastering is part of the artistic process or not and I get that. My view is the mastering should not alter the overall sound at all and hard limiting clearly does.
SW sought to recreate the original before the impact of mastering and then there’s no mastering applied.
I have the original vinyl of Coming Up and it is more dynamic and less in your face than the CD, so what’s the “original”……?
i am interested in atmos only, as i’ve heard everything else milin times
I would normally work on the assumption that if Suede can reissue something, they will.
The person on the cover resembles Bruno Mars!!!
Perspective: Up till about 2007 I used to order newly recorded/released 7″ singles weekly from Sisterray in London and they cost £3 including postal delivery to my door. Since then 7″ single releases have virtually dried up (I wonder why?) apart from occasional archive releases like this.
The money I saved from buying these paid for the Divine Symmetry box set. Now there’s a perspective for you!
“Too much. There’s too much f****** perspective.”
Presumably because 7″ singles haven’t been profitable for a long time, and labels used to run them as a loss leader to help songs into the chart.
