Our Take

Ah, Tom Waits, the maestro of the macabre, the sultan of the surreal, the king of the crooners. His album "Alice" is a sonic journey through the looking glass, a haunting blend of blues, jazz, and avant-garde that leaves you feeling like you've stumbled into a dark, twisted wonderland.

The 20th Anniversary Edition of "Alice" is a tantalising treat for fans of Waits, with bonus tracks and unreleased material that add even more layers to this already enigmatic album. From the eerie wails of Waits' vocals to the dissonant cacophony of the instruments, every note is a reminder of the genius of this musical maverick.

Tracks like "Alice" and "Everything You Can Think" are masterclasses in storytelling, with Waits' gravelly voice weaving tales of love, loss, and longing with a haunting beauty that is hard to forget. The addition of bonus tracks like "Kommienezuspadt" and "There's Only Alice" only serve to enhance the otherworldly atmosphere of the album.

If you're a fan of the weird and the wonderful, of music that defies convention and pushes boundaries, then "Alice" is a must-listen. With its mix of melancholy melodies, avant-garde experimentation, and Waits' trademark growl, this album is a testament to the enduring brilliance of one of music's true originals. Jump down the rabbit hole and let Tom Waits be your guide.
