Reviews
3 Stars - Good - "...Their music is frequently as beautiful as it is brooding, and in the space between lies its enigmatic, enduring appeal...", Ranked #5 on Melody Maker's list of 1995's `Albums Of The Year' - "...some wondrously wise and weary songs...", "...Lead singer Stuart Staples utters poetic proclamations in a slo-mo basso profundo, while the eclectic music--funereal organs, skittish strings blaring horns--creates alluring atmospheres of grief, isolation, and desire." - Rating: A-, "...Somewhere out on the Western plain is a sacred place where Nick Cave, the Righteous Brothers, J.J. Cale and the ghost of Jim Morrison conjured up Tindersticks....Simultaneously spare and lush (yes, there's a string section), the songs crawl forward at a suspensful pace; where most rock is all momentum and release...", Ranked #13 in NME's `Top 50 Albums Of The Year' for 1995 - "...they're the croaking phantoms of the opera--more beautiful, subtle and stylishly miserable than ever."
