    Honestly, his album is awful. "...slowly we become one / We stick like chewing gum." It's laughable.

    Being an avid fan of Suede, I was truly disappointed by this album. There's an ever-present anxiety of both Butler and Anderson to shout "we're back" throughout the songs, either by too much guitar or/and strenuous attempts to actually sing respectively. Four or five songs (refugees, imperfection, creatures) might stand side to side with some of their worse b-sides of the past, Being an avid fan of Suede, I was truly disappointed by this album.

Four or five songs (refugees, imperfection, creatures) might stand side to side with some of their worse b-sides of the past, but that's all. To me, this album signifies a totally unecessary reunion (the last Suede album was much better) and is something any self-respecting Suede fan should dismiss with no second thought.… Expand

    As much as Anderson & Butler have tried to avoid it, comparisons with their Suede era are inevidable. This album is no better than any of the Anderson-era Suede material and certainly nowhere close to the first two Suede albums that wrote britpop's history in the early nineties. The Tears struggle to convince, but unfortunately this one lacks passion, energy and identity.

    As a whole, 'Here Come The Tears' is a welcome collection of songs, even if the sentiment of it all does become a little saccharine-queasy after a while.

    Here Come The Tears sounds like the best album that Suede never made, full of romantic, smouldering pop songs with a soaring depth to them.

    It is raw, emotionally stirring, and the best album you’ll hear this year, by a mile.
