Tindersticks - The Hungry Saw

Tindersticks will release their new album, The Hungry Saw, on Monday April 28.
The Hungry Saw was made in 2007 from January to December. “Along the way a studio, Le Chien Chanceux (The Lucky Dog), was built (in the very deep centre of France, in La Creuse) and in June there was an 8 day recording session from which most of this songs came and were realised”.
The return of Stuart Staples among the Tindersticks after a short solo break is more than welcome. You know sometimes the voice of Staples gets on my nerves a little bit – but what will be Tindersticks without it – however, this time with The Hungry Saw’s brilliant dressing and multi-instrumental gifts, Staples vocals grab me from the second track to the last. No problem.
The instrumental opener simply called Introduction set the mood, few drops of piano and here you are… lit up a candle and pour yourself a glass of a good Bordeaux wine… you’re introduced in the unique world of Tindersticks. The band now as a trio produced another album of music noir full of brooding songs about love and regret. A very special mention to songs like Boobar, the quite funny The Hungry Saw, the almost raw Mother Dear and the beautiful and touching All The Love. So far one of the best of this year, I warmly recommend this album.
Tindersticks will be touring The Hungry Saw record in major cities around Europe. The band will be a 12-piece comprised of David Boulter, Stuart Staples and Neil Fraser together with friends like the French drummer Thomas Belhom (Amor Belhom Duo). More info below.
