Suede We Are The Pigs 30th Anniversary Edition 7" Picture Disc 2024
We Are The Pigs /
The Killing Of A Flash Boy
• As part of our continuing Suede30 campaign,
Demon Records will be issuing Suede’s fifth, sixth,
seventh and eighth singles as highly collectable 7”
picture discs, reproducing the original arresting
cover images on the discs.
• Released on 12th September 1994, the band’s sixth
single was “We Are The Pigs”. The first song to be
released from the “Dog Man Star” album, The
Times commented "Propelled by one of Bernard
Butler's finest riff chord sequences and fuelled by
the nightmare visions of Brett Anderson's lyric, the
song romps home with a glorious chorus that
combines old-fashioned sing-a-long appeal with an
intriguingly sinister edge." The single peaked at
number 18 in the UK charts.
• The B-side was “The Killing Of A Flash Boy”. This
song did not appear on the “Dog Man Star” album,
but in recent times, Brett has commented that in
hindsight, he would have included the song in the
album’s tracklisting.
