About the album:
Dog Man Star is the second album by English alternative rock band Suede, released in October 1994 on Nude Records. The album was recorded in London at Master Rock studios in early 1994 and was produced by Ed Buller. It was the last Suede album to feature guitarist Bernard Butler, due to growing tensions between him and singer Brett Anderson ending with Butler leaving the band before the album was completed. As a result, some tracks on the album had to be completed with the assistance of session musicians.
Arriving late 1994 and the last of the Britpop "big four" to release an album that year, the record was viewed as being very out of step with the mainstream music scene; chronicling the band as they eschewed from the "Britpop pack". In contrast to the first album Suede, which highly emulated the influences of David Bowie and The Smiths, Dog Man Star exhibits an individualistic aesthetic, drawing from a wider range of influences. Although it did not sell on the same scale as their chart-topping debut, Dog Man Star reached number three on the UK Albums Chart and was certified as gold by the BPI in November 1994.
The grandiose, ambitious, and heavily orchestrated album was greeted with enthusiastic reviews but muted commercial response. Reviews in the UK were very positive, while reviews in the US were mixed. Nevertheless, it is now considered by many to be Suede's masterpiece. On release it was relatively unknown in the mainstream, although the album has over time garnered universal acclaim from critics. In the intervening decade between Suede's 2003 separation and the release of Bloodsports, the album has steadily garnered a strong following as a classic album. In October 2013, NME magazine placed the album at number 31 in its list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.
