well ive only streamed it once but i have to say pretty dissapointing
but it really depends on the type of tom waits you like..unfortunately for me most the album is not the tom waits i like, really noisey all over the place captain beefheartish type stuff..which isnt bad but its not my cup of tea. if you liked the album real gone youd prob like this
lyrically not many songs really grabbed me which sux cuz hes such an amazing songwriter...
the best songs imo are always the slower sadder piano songs and there were a couple that were pretty awesome
the songs to really check out would be
kiss me last leaf new years eve pay me back in the crowd
now i usually dont like albums the first time i hear them but i dont think this on is going to be a classic sadly like rain dogs or mule variations..in fact id prob put it dead last as my least fav tom album but i shall give it another go and see
