SUEDE - The Drowners (Saturday Night Live Show)

[@Azwel]

I guess the sound mixer wasnt there that day... but this is great if you wanna learn the bass part.

[@colonialstraits1069]

Considering this was transferred from a VHS cassette, which was recorded straight off the terrestrial TV, it’s likely the poor mix is due to degradation and low quality recording equipment.

[@rocco777777]

i agree about the levels but i love it that he plays a bass *line* rather than just thickening up the guitar part like most indie-type bass players. such a shame that they couldn't share the road with Bernard for longer...

[@chekybeetle]

Matt's bass line is brilliant~

[@jazesp4144]

[@ChainNonSmoker]

Fuck were they rocking raw 1993, not saying they weren't brilliant afterwards but this edgy sound is really something extraordinary

[@colonialstraits1069]

My favorite era.

[@jonanjello]

Yeah, not SNL. MYV studios

[@smk2457]

I'm trying to learn the bass part so this video is perfect.😂

[@demonsbootlegs3004]

[@warrenmilford6848]

Would have liked to hear how the SNL audience reacted to them.

[@NINOABSNABSN]

Style!

[@Squeaky1423]

HOT!!!!!

[@Jaredletmego]

Your opinion stinks.I saw them in concert and they were awesome.Suede,Peter Murphy,Gary Numan,take your pick.They all wanted to emulate Bowie.

[@AleMaya]

this isnt snl. is it? o.o oh, and by the way.. how bowiestic

[@radicalsquare]

Yeah, the sound mix was askew a bit, should have been more guitar, slightly less bass.

[@RogueRotting360]

Lyrics were never their strong point granted, but as a fan of Bowie, Roxy Music, Prince, Bolan/T-Rex, The Smiths, PSB, The Sex Pistols, Commotions, The Stooges, The Fall and the countless other bands Suede were inspired by - I still love them. Their debut, Dog Man Star, Coming Up and even half of Head Music still stands up today. Worst band ever? Utter bollox.

[@glucatero8729]

RogueRotting360 their debut album was suede not dog man star

[@z00ts00t77]

That's what he said. Their debut album, Dog Man Star, Coming Up, and half of Head Music still stand up today for him.

[@robertnettleship5467]

Nice to see The Fall mentioned. One of my favourite bands

[@jasperhalco871]

Don't forget Sci Fi Lullabies... it's as good as the first 3 albums!!

[@EmbodiedNonDuality]

as nice as the bass is..it is too dominant. for a bass Think the levels are a little off. Can barely hear Bernie

[@HeidiChiao]

Isn't this the Conan O'Brien show?

[@Reint25]

@ploopyism You don't like The Velvet Underground, The Strokes or The Stooges? But it's indeed amazing how many fantastic British bands have been denied outside their country, especially America: Roxy Music, The Kinks, The Specials, The Smiths, The Jam, The Buzzcocks...

[@randomviewer2007]

I love this song, but the bass is awful on this performance. Listen to those flubbed notes going into the chorus. Ugh.

[@earthsgroove79]

Lame
