Album Notes & Community Reviews

A comeback album that marked a new chapter for Tindersticks after a five-year hiatus and a significant lineup change. 'The Hungry Saw' returns to the core elements of their classic sound: Stuart Staples' rich baritone voice, melancholic lyrics, and elegant, string-laden arrangements. The album is a work of quiet, understated beauty, re-establishing the band with a sense of renewed purpose and focus.
