SUPPORT LATEST LAME !!
Tindersticks were one of the most original and distinctive British acts of the
'90s, standing apart from both the British indie scene and the rash of Brit-pop
guitar combos that dominated the U.K. charts. Where their contemporaries were
often direct and to the point, Tindersticks were obtuse and leisurely, crafting
dense, difficult songs layered with literary lyrics, intertwining melodies,
mumbling vocals, and gently melancholy orchestrations. Essentially, the group
filtered the dark romanticism of Leonard Cohen, Ian Curtis, and Scott Walker
through the bizarre pop songcraft of Lee Hazlewood and the aesthetics of indie
rock. Though their music was far from casual listening, Tindersticks gained a
dedicated cult following in the mid-'90s, beginning with their eponymous 1993
debut album, which was named Album of the Year by Melody Maker.
The origins of Tindersticks lay in Asphalt Ribbons, a Nottingham-based indie
rock band that featured vocalist Stuart Staples, keyboardist David Boulter, and
violinist Dickon Hinchcliffe. All three members formed Tindersticks in 1992; the
remaining members included guitarist Neil Fraser, bassist Mark Colwill, and
drummer Al Macaulay. In November of 1992, the band released its first single,
"Patchwork," on its own label, Tippy Toe. "Marbles" followed early in 1993, as
did "A Marriage Made in Heaven," a collaboration with Huggy Bear's Niki Sin that
appeared on Rough Trade's Singles Club. Following the release of the Unwired EP
on Tippy Toe, the fledgling This Way Up signed the band.
Tindersticks' eponymous debut appeared halfway through 1993, earning rave
reviews from most sections of the British press. By the end of the year, the
group and the album had won over most of the U.K. critics, and Tindersticks was
named Album of the Year by Melody Maker. Tindersticks spent a quiet year in
1994, releasing a single of John Barry's James Bond theme "We Have All the Time
in the World" (from On Her Majesty's Secret Service), a live album entitled
Amsterdam, and a cover of Pavement's "Here." Also that year, Tindersticks was
released on Bar/None in the U.S. In the spring of 1995, the group released its
untitled second album, which featured cameos from Gallon Drunk's Terry Edwards
and the Walkabouts' Carla Torgerson. Like its predecessor, it received rave
reviews and appeared on nearly every British Top Ten list of the Best of 1995.
In November of 1995, the group released another live album, Bloomsbury Theatre.
Tindersticks were quiet for most of 1996, releasing the soundtrack to the Claire
Denis film NΘnette et Boni in the fall of the year. The album was comprised of
old songs, new songs, and rearranged older material. A new version of "A
Marriage Made in Heaven," featuring vocals from actress Isabella Rossellini, was
released a few months after NΘnette et Boni; the single was later appended to
the American release of 1997's Curtains. Their fourth effort, Simple Pleasure
(1999), marked Tindersticks' most open-hearted release since their inception. A
new deal with Beggars Banquet surfaced at the dawn of the new millennium, and a
replenished unity within the band was found on 2001's Can Our Love.... Later
that year, the band provided the soundtrack to another Claire Denis film,
Trouble Every Day. The proper follow-up to Can Our Love..., Waiting for the
Moon, was released in mid-2003.
In 2005, Staples embarked on a solo project (fueling rumors of a split) and went
on to produce two albums. The rumors proved to be partially true as Hinchcliffe,
Colwill, and drummer Macaulay left the group in 2006. The remaining Tindersticks
(Staples, Fraser, and Boulter) were joined by longtime associate Terry Edwards
and a host of musicians in their return to the studio in 2007. The resulting
album, The Hungry Saw, was released in 2008, followed two years later by Falling
Down a Mountain. The latter album introduced another revised lineup, this one
featuring Earl Harvin on drums and David Kitt on guitar. Tindersticks' long
collaboration with Claire Denis, in film and television, was compiled by
Constellation into a limited-edition five-CD (or five-LP) package entitled The
Claire Denis Film Scores 1996-2009, which was released in April of 2011. The
band planned to tour the material in the U.K. in the fall of that year.
Recorded between May 2010 and August 2011, Tindersticks' ninth studio album
featured, appropriately, nine brand-new cuts, including the hypnotic first
single, "Medicine." The Something Rain was released on February 21, 2012. The
band released its latest collaboration with Denis, the soundtrack for Les
Salauds (The Bastards), in the fall of 2013, following the film's release. In
October, Tindersticks released Across Six Leap Years, in celebration of their
21st anniversary. The set contained new recordings of tracks from their back
catalog.
In 2011 the band were commissioned by the In Flanders Fields World War One
Museum in Ypres, Belgium to provide a soundscape for the permanent exhibition
then being planned to commemorate the centenary of the Great War. The
soundtrack, which plays continuously during the museum's open hours, was
released as the album Ypres in October of 2014.
