Our Take

Bernard Butler, the man who brought us the iconic riffs of "Animal Nitrate" with Suede, has returned with his latest solo effort, "Good Grief." And let me tell you, the grief is very good indeed.

From the moment the opening track kicks in, it's clear that Butler hasn't lost his touch. The guitar work is as sharp as ever, weaving its way through catchy melodies and driving rhythms with the finesse of a seasoned pro. It's like being wrapped in a warm blanket made of pure, unadulterated rock 'n' roll.

Butler's vocals are on top form too, adding a touch of vulnerability to the powerhouse sound of the music. His lyrics dig deep into themes of loss, longing, and love, hitting you right in the feels in the best way possible.

The production on "Good Grief" is top-notch, with every instrument given room to breathe and shine. From the shimmering keys to the thundering drums, each element is placed with care and attention to detail, creating a rich sonic tapestry that demands repeat listens.

In a world where nostalgia often reigns supreme, Butler manages to strike a perfect balance between honoring his past and forging a new path forward. "Good Grief" is a testament to his talent, his passion, and his enduring ability to make us feel something real. Raise a glass, shed a tear, and dive headfirst into this masterpiece of an album. You won't regret it.
