Love and Poison


Love and Poison is a live concert video of Suede's show at the Brixton Academy venue on 16 May 1993, notable mainly for its collection of early songs from their debut album Suede. Along with the nine songs from the album were four B-sides. Love and Poison received a DVD release on the deluxe re-issue of Suede's self-titled debut album. Dean Carlson of Allmusic rated the video 4 stars, praising guitarist Bernard Butler's performance, however seemingly criticising director W.I.Z.'s camera techniques; however, his review would appear to be partly satirical.
