Album Review: Tindersticks, ‘The Hungry Saw’
If you know Tindersticks, you'll be more than familiar with the world they inhabit. It's a sonic landscape of occasional desolation, soothing melancholy and introspective melody, all hazed out through a 3am red-wine-and-cigarettes blurry filter. In short: if you're looking for an album to soundtrack the million-plus hours of GTA IV rampages you're going to be enjoying from Tuesday, you need to search elsewhere. If, however, you're looking for a haunting, swelling, oddly fitting mixture of the stripped-back and the orchestral, then The Hungry Saw - Tindersticks' first album since 2003's Waiting For The Moon, and the seventh in their catalogue so far - may just float your boat nicely.
