Our Take

Tom Waits is back with After The Fox Vol. 2, a wild ride through the mind of one of music's most eccentric characters. The album kicks off with "Squashed Bananas and Tinfoil Hats," a rollicking romp through Waits' signature blend of gravelly vocals and clanging instrumentation.

Throughout the album, Waits weaves tales of love, loss, and redemption, all set to a backdrop of off-kilter rhythms and unexpected musical flourishes. Tracks like "Midnight in Melancholy City" and "Rusty Spoons and Broken Dreams" showcase Waits' ability to create vivid and evocative worlds with just a few notes and a guttural growl.

But it's not all doom and gloom on After The Fox Vol. 2. "Dancing With the Devil at Dusk" is a jaunty number that will have you tapping your feet and feeling like you've stumbled into a dark, smoky nightclub in the middle of nowhere. And "Whiskey Rivers and Cigarette Dreams" is a haunting ballad that will stick with you long after the final notes fade away.

Overall, After The Fox Vol. 2 is a masterpiece of musical storytelling, with Waits at the top of his game. Whether you're a die-hard fan or a newcomer to his work, this album is sure to leave you spellbound and craving more. So pour yourself a glass of whisky, settle in, and let Tom Waits take you on a journey you won't soon forget. Cheers, Tom.
