One of the tracks of the album, "Black smoke" you can already listen from the myspace site of the band . It's pretty good.
For the creation of "Falling Down A Mountain", the Tindersticks says the following:
After the mediocre "Hungry Saw", I really hope the Tindersticks rediscover their good old self.

"Our last album, The Hungry Saw, was our first in five years. We didn’t
really know what to expect on its release; we had just six concerts
booked, and everyone was a little nervous…
That was April 2008. The success of those concerts, took us all by surprise and led to seventy more shows in Europe and the US.
In our ‘downtime’, we have scored 2 film soundtracks for Claire Denis: 35 Shots Of Rum and White Material.From those nervous beginnings a new unity and sense of direction grew. We found ourselves cobbling together acoustic rehearsals for new ideas in dressing rooms and venue corridors. There was a growing need to explore and we quickly started working in the studio.
Very soon this work became Falling Down A Mountain, our eighth studio album. Recorded in rural France and in Brussels between May and July 2009."
