  1. The A.V. Club
    91
    Tindersticks remains a champion at feel-bad soul strings, but those who've found the group's previous work oppressive might want to try again: Staples' vocals haven't changed, but with the music as pared-down as one of their impressionistic soundtracks, it's a new sound.
  2. All Music Guide
    90
    Tindersticks have never failed to satisfy anyone looking not only for sadness but also those looking for albums that make you feel and songs that will stick with you for a long time. The Hungry Saw is classic Tindersticks.
  3. Uncut
    60
    Tindersticks have returned refreshed, but some of the old dissolute glamour is gone.
