Generally favorable reviews - based on 20 Critics What's this?

  • Summary: The seventh album for the English trio is its first in more than five years.
Score distribution:
  1. Positive: 17 out of 20
  2. Negative: 0 out of 20
  1. 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. 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. 60
    Tindersticks have returned refreshed, but some of the old dissolute glamour is gone.
