Love and Poison is a live concert video of Suede's show at the Brixton Academy venue on 16 May 1993, notable for performances of songs from their debut album Suede and early B-sides.
At the request of the Teenage Cancer Trust, after a seven year hiatus Suede reformed to play what they believed would be a one-off concert at the Royal Albert Hall on 24th March 2010. As a result of the extraordinary reaction from the audience, the band decided to reform permanently.
