Suede Releases 'Dancing With The Europeans'

Suede release ‘Dancing With The Europeans’, the third single from their highly anticipated tenth studio album Antidepressants, due for release on 5th September 2025 via BMG and available to pre-order here.

‘Dancing With The Europeans’ encapsulates the Antidepressants message - how we are all searching for connection in a disconnected world. The official music video, released today and captures the unifying power of the shared human experience Brett Anderson is singing about. Hundreds of Suede fans invade the stage, and joy ensues.

The video is directed by Chris Turner (Favourite Colour: Black Productions) who also directed the official music video for Antidepressants’ opening statement, ‘Disintegrate’.

Speaking about ‘Dancing with the Europeans’, Brett Anderson said: “There's a sense of optimism about this song. I remember specifically we were doing a gig in Spain during the time we were writing this album. I was going through a bad time and at a low, personally. But we played this brilliant gig. There was a great connection between me and the audience. I thought of the phrase, dancing with the Europeans. There's something about that word, Europeans, that I really like. The phrase summed up the experience of looking for connection in a disconnected world. This sense of, where do we find those bonds with our fellow human beings? That show in Spain broke down those barriers.”

The release of Antidepressants will be surrounded by Suede Takeover - a special concert and event programme hosted in different spaces across London's Southbank Centre throughout August and September 2025.

Today the takeover extends to meet phenomenal demand. Suede have announced an immersive Antidepressants performance, debuting their tenth album live and in the round from a new stage within the Southbank Centre’s Clore Ballroom, specially created for Suede Takeover.

The intimate performance will take place on 26th August, two weeks before the album’s official release. This is a one night only chance for fans to experience Antidepressants in this unique environment. Tickets are on sale from 1st August at 10:00 BST here.

On 12 September in the Purcell Room Suede will revisit the up-close-and-personal 2018 documentary The Insatiable Ones. Discussing its highs and lows with Miranda Sawyer and director Mike Christie in a live Q&A, and filling in the gaps from the last seven years. A one-time only opportunity to get the 2025 update to this essential source of Suede lore.

Suede Takeover continues at the Royal Festival Hall on 13th and 14th September with two sets of Suede's fiercely loved classics, hits and new music. Special guests are also announced today in Bloodworm (13th) and Gazelle Twin (14th).

On September 17th the band will perform in the Purcell Room for an unusual and intimate off-mic evening with Suede. The residency closes on 19th September in the Queen Elizabeth Hall, with Suede’s first-ever full orchestral headline show, in collaboration with the Paraorchestra.

Speaking about Suede Takeover, Brett Anderson said: “It’s our own personal Meltdown, a chance for us to stretch beyond the usual rock gig format. We are all huge fans of the Southbank. It’s the heartbeat of the arts in London. Expect old songs, new songs, borrowed songs, blue songs, drama, melody, noise, sweat and a couple of surprises.”

Suede Takeover is a full circle moment as the band return to the Southbank Centre for the first time since performing at the Royal Festival Hall for David Bowie's Meltdown in 2002.

Suede’s tenth album finds the Platinum-selling, Mercury Prize winning NME God Like Genius-certified giants of British independent music charged with the intensity that defines their live shows. Since the release of 2022’s Autofiction - Suede’s widely acclaimed ninth album and their highest-charting record in over 20 years, debuting at #2 in the UK Album Chart - the band has performed to the largest audiences of their career at shows in more than 14 different countries. Suede were described as "the most visceral live act on the planet today" by the London Evening Standard in a five star review of their summer 2024 Alexandra Palace concert last year. This fire and vitality is what has turbo-charged the Antidepressants sound.

Introducing Suede’s tenth album, Brett Anderson said: “If Autofiction was our punk record, Antidepressants is our post-punk record. It’s about the tensions of modern life, the paranoia, the anxiety, the neurosis. We are all striving for connection in a disconnected world. This was the feel I wanted the songs to have. The album is called Antidepressants. This is broken music for broken people.”

Antidepressants will be available in multiple formats including CD (standard and deluxe), vinyl (standard and colour variants), picture disc LP, cassette and as a deluxe box set. All pre-orders are available here.
