Double vinyl LP pressing in gatefold jacket. Includes digital download. 'Nobody was between us and the records that we made,' says Tindersticks frontman Stuart Staples. Mavens of intimate and expansive mood-song, Tindersticks have forged paths of their own unobstructed making over three decades, avidly trend-averse in their dusky and far-reaching explorations of the heart. Released through City Slang on 25th March, Past Imperfect: The Best of Tindersticks '92-'21 maps the band's 30-year journey across a peerless 20-track chronology. 'Each step a story,' as Staples said on 'How He Entered'. And every song a fresh twist in a winding tale. It is the sound of an uncommonly ambitious band always seeking new ways to connect with their songs, rediscovering themselves as a unit at every turn so that everything familiar about their music sounds fresh again. Always, of course, by nobody's measure but their own.
