Afternoon with the blinds drawn

Afternoons with the Blinds Drawn

Introduction:
The most memorable performance | the most beloved work | the saddest moment | the most failed album. This is Brett Anderson's personal recollection and the complete journey of the legendary British band Suede.
Rock bands are prone to falling into the same old ruts, repeating the same stories. In the book he once said he wouldn't write, Brett Anderson presents a strikingly different narrative. From its rise in the 1990s to its breakup in 2003, Anderson recounts the key moments in Suede's career, offering a candid assessment of the band's triumphs and failures. He also offers insightful commentary on the music industry and pop culture.
Outside of his band life, Anderson also looks back on his own once fragmented life. He dives deep into his heart and shows us a sincere, sharp and sensitive self.
Editor's Recommendation:
The lead singer of the globally influential band Suede recounts the band's career, tracing its ups and downs and the conflicts among its members. This book is a retrospective and subversive look back at the band's journey. Suede burst onto the scene in the 1990s, becoming a highly talked-about and widely watched band of the time. Along with this immense popularity came challenges, including media criticism and member rifts. Brett Anderson, a prominent figure at the center of this controversy, recounts this story with a candid voice.
A heartfelt, in-depth analysis of the music industry ecosystem, a must-read for every music lover. Brett Anderson once said this was a book he didn't want to write, but what ultimately motivated him to write it was a desire to use his own personal experiences to present a broader picture, revealing the truth about the music industry behind each band. He reviews the mistakes made by bands with candor and directness, while also unsparingly highlighting the problems facing the music industry today, a thought-provoking and thought-provoking work.
★The well-known DJ Zhang Youdai wrote the preface, and Modern Sky founder Shen Lihui sincerely recommends this book. Youdai and Shen Lihui are not only veterans in the Chinese music circle, but also jointly promoted the first performance of the Goatskin band in China. It is very memorable that they recommend this book to Chinese readers.
★ Positive reviews from many British media outlets and highly recommended by readers Anderson presented this heavyweight work with elegant writing and a sincere tone. It received positive reviews from many media outlets including The Guardian, The Times, and The Observer, and was also given a high score of four and a half stars by readers of Amazon and Goodreads.
