Our Take

TINDERSTICKS, the illustrious indie veterans, have returned with their latest offering, "Simple Pleasure". And oh boy, is it a delight for the senses. This album is like a warm hug from your cool hippie uncle who always smells of patchouli and has the best vinyl collection.

Lead vocalist Stuart Staples's haunting croon is as seductive as ever, luring you in like a siren from the depths of a smoky jazz club. The band's signature orchestral arrangements create a lush sonic tapestry that envelops you in a warm embrace, like a cashmere blanket on a chilly winter night.

Tracks like "Can We Start Again?" and "Take Me" showcase the band's ability to blend melancholy and beauty with a rare finesse. The instrumentation is rich and layered, with strings, horns, and pianos weaving in and out of each other like a beautifully choreographed dance.

But it's not all serious introspection and soul-searching. "Bathtime" is a playful romp through a quirky, carnival-esque soundscape that will make you want to grab a rubber duck and join in on the fun. And the infectious groove of "Sweet Release" is guaranteed to get you tapping your toes and swaying along.

In conclusion, "Simple Pleasure" is a masterclass in understated elegance and musical artistry. So grab a cup of chamomile tea, put on your comfiest sweater, and let TINDERSTICKS serenade you into a state of blissful relaxation. You won't regret it.
