Tindersticks is an English band that was formed in 1991. The band originated from a previous group called Asphalt Ribbons, which was formed in 1988. The founding members of Tindersticks include Stuart A. Staples (vocals), David Boulter (organ & accordion), Neil Fraser (guitar), Dickon Hinchliffe (guitar & strings), Al Macaulay (percussion & drums) and John Thompson (bass). However, Thompson was later replaced by Mark Colwill before their first recordings.

During the early stage of their career, Tindersticks recorded six studio albums, two additional soundtrack albums, and several singles. After a hiatus between 2004 and 2008, the band underwent some changes in its lineup. The current lineup consists of Staples, Boulter, Fraser, Earl Harvin on drums and Dan McKinna on bass. They have also had intermittent appearances by Terry Edwards and Gina Foster.

Tindersticks emerged as one of the most unique British acts of the '90s. They stood out from both the British indie scene and the Brit-pop guitar combos that dominated the U.K. charts at that time. Their music is characterized by dense and difficult songs with literary lyrics, intricate melodies, mumbled vocals, and gently melancholic orchestrations.

Influenced by artists such as Leonard Cohen, Ian Curtis, Scott Walker, Lee Hazlewood,and indie rock aesthetics;

Being the Tindersticks third album, Curtains is one of the most praised by fans. Seductive sound, luscious songwriting, smooth singing are just a few impressions from several media. Isabella Rossellini makes an appearance and sings a duet with Stuart Staples, which was a welcome surprise for the steadily growing fanbase at the time. The Tindersticks stayed away from the standards of the Britpop/rock scene and have become a band that is not easily boxed into a category. After producing two albums that were seriously dark and string-drenched, they managed to produce a slightly lighter sound filled with a subtlety preserving their beloved dark side and managed to include humour, melancholy and intimacy. This album has more depth than the previous two. CD - Featuring several alternative versions, instrumentals and b-side's makes this re-release complete.2LP - Double 180 Gram Vinyl housed in Gatefold Sleeve. Expanded edition contains the original 15 Track Album plus 9 Bonus tracks among others, Paco’s Theme, A Marriage Made In Heaven (duet with Isabella Rossellini) and Rented Rooms.
