Tindersticks announce new album, Soft Tissue

Tindersticks have announced a new album. On September 13, the group will release Soft Tissue via City Slang. Today they’ve shared the new single “New World.” Check out its stop-motion video below, which was made by singer Stuart Staples’ daughter, Sidonie Osborne Staples.

Stuart Staples said in a statement about the video, “Sid was making these tiny ceramic characters, so I asked her to make some of the band. Later I wrote this song ‘New World’ about somehow trying make sense of this strange world I felt developing around me and these little guys came back into my mind – Let’s take them on a stop motion journey across a strange land, from the barren rocks to the bountiful fruit that is not familiar and maybe poisonous. Sid put the landscapes together and moved the figures, millimeters at a time. Neil Fraser took the photographs, we edited as we went along.”
