TINDERSTICKS.....ONE OF A KIND.

TINDERSTICKS!!!! WHERE DO YOU START WHEN WRITING ABOUT THESE GUYS.STEWART STAPLES ( VOCALS) IS A GENIUS,WHILE THEIR MUSIC MAY NOT BE FOR EVERYONE THEY ARE UNIQUE TOO SAY THE LEAST. IMAGINE A CROSS BETWEEN NICK CAVE,LEONARD COHEN,16 HORSEPOWER AND WOVEN HAND IF YOU CAN.NOT EVEN CLOSE.MAY I SUGGEST YOUR FIRST PURCHASE OF TINDERSTICKS MIGHT BE FALLING DOWN A MOUNTAIN ???.THE LYRICS ARE DARK AS IS THE SUBJECT MATTER.ON SAYING THAT THEY DO IT WITH A CERTAIN FLAIR ONLY THEY POSSESS.ANYWAY IN A NUTSHELL,GIVE THEM A TRY WHO KNOWS YOU MAY LIKE THE MUSIC.Read full review...
