“Made of Stone” by The Stone Roses vs. “Daddy’s Speeding” by Suede

“Made of Stone” hails from The Stone Roses’ self-titled debut in 1989, and is a synthesis on the death of the artist Jackson Pollock, whose art had a significant impact on the aesthetic vision of the album. The album is an early classic of the Baggy/Madchester era, an early era of alternative dance music in Manchester in the UK with a heavy emphasis on drugs.

“Daddy’s Speeding,” conversely, depicts the death of James Dean and how his tragic passing was mandatory for the building of his legacy and the image he came to inspire. It hails from Suede’s sophomore album, Dog Man Star, which turns away from the anthemic-rock style of their own self-titled debut, in exchange for a pessimistic and hedonistic sound and outlook expressing the frustrations of the lifestyle that the band was living in. Dog Man Star is a personal favorite from the 90s Britpop era (released in 1994), which was heavily inspired by the preceding Baggy era.

The parallels between these songs, and the implications of the crashes they are about, are impossible to ignore.

“It’s a lonely record for lonely people”

Mat might not be the writer of the two Osman brothers, but this is the perfect description of the “Dog Man Star” album.

The only thing sadder than listening to The 2 of Us is listening to The 2 of Us while thinking about Brett sneaking into the studio and silently crying behind the glass whilst watching Bernard recorded the piano part because he "just didn't know how to reach him" and he knew it was the end.

Today we’re thinking about thematic parallels between “Made of Stone” by The Stone Roses (about Jackson Pollock’s car crash) and “Daddy’s Speeding” by Suede (about James Dean’s car crash)
