The Essential Suede News -- Friday, April 19, 2002
Suede's forthcoming fifth album will be titled A New Morning. The title reflects the positive, "up" mood of the record
and optimistic nature of the lyrics, most evident in "Positivity".
Suede fanclub members will have a unique opportunity to hear some of the tracks from the album at a special party to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the release of The Drowners. There will also be rare video screenings, giveaways and surprises. The party will take place at a central London location on 4th May. Space will be extremely limited. To have a chance of attending you must send us your email address and mobile number, along with your fanclub membership number. They'll then let you know if you've made it onto the guestlist along with details of where and when to turn up.

I paid greater attention to the design and details of suedeamp 2. Just take a look at the screen shot... and download if you like it.
