Review (AllMusic) : Tindersticks' second consecutive, eponymously titled double-LP set refines the approach of their debut; while every bit as ambitious and adventuresome, it achieves an even greater musical balance, stretching into luxuriously long compositional structures and more intricate arrangements. While Stuart Staples' songs remain as obsessive and haunted as before, he wards off his demons with fits of pitch-black humor (the narrative "My Sister") and a more tender perspective; similarly, while his funereal vocals remain the focus, there's a new reliance on extended instrumental passages, and even a pair of duets (the centerpiece, "Travelling Light" - a gorgeous collaboration with the Walkabouts' Carla Torgerson - is akin to a Lee Hazlewood and Nancy Sinatra record trapped in emotional purgatory). Another awesome triumph of mood and atmosphere.

Review (Wikipedia) : Tindersticks is the name of the second album by Tindersticks, released in 1995. It is often referred to as The Second Album in order to distinguish it from the band's debut album, which was also self-titled. The album cover shows guitarist Neil Fraser at the Timothy Everest shop in London. In 2006 the album was performed live in its entirety as part of the All Tomorrow's Parties-curated Don't Look Back series.
