Tindersticks - Falling Down A Mountain
Released: 25/01/2010
4AD
Tindersticks isn’t the most familiar name in the indie world, but the band have established their own niche in smoky, late-night balladry. This is their second album following a five-year hiatus, during which singer Stuart Staples revived the group by changing the line-up.

Dusted Magazine“Beholden to a uniquely warped imagination...” The band’s most richly produced record is also its most accessible. Which could make it a less enduring one. That is, if it weren’t for the stark gallows humor that lurks in all of Tindersticks’ music...
.
Pitchfork“Discovering where its real creative chemistry lies...” It leaves a very hazy, almost spectral impression when it ends. But it's also warm and in some ways comforting, and it improves the more you listen to it and tease out the details in the songs...
.
The Times“A band on top form. ” Tindersticks have emerged as a very different unit, with a renewed sense of purpose, typified in the title track on Falling Down a Mountain, which builds and builds with sure intent...
.
The Independent“Familiar Nashville-on-Trent ground...” After all, a band who began by expressing twilight ennui have nowhere else to go. It's a sombre thing, but somehow warm with it...
.
MusicOMH“There's life in the old sticks yet...” Enough classic Tindersticks to keep die-hard fans more than happy; and enough new stuff to everyone else think twice about relegating them to the cabaret circuit...
.
Drowned In Sound“Falling Down A Mountain doesn't disappoint...” This record is evident proof that Stuart Staples' creative palette is as vibrant and uncompromising as it ever has been, and for that alone we're sincerely and eternally grateful...
