The New Tom Waits Album: Real Gone
Tom Waits has mastered the surreal. And with his new album he tests his listeners with tastes of grit and steel. By removing piano from the background of each song the ragged pop sensibilities are thrown out the window and what we have left is shattered on the concrete below your open window. Pull your ears inside your head and let the little rhymes and storys lull you to sleep or maybe should I say its less like sleep and more like a dance on a razor but none the less listen to this album in bed with the covers over your head and booze on your breath.
