Our Take
Our Take
Ah, Tom Waits - the man, the myth, the gravelly-voiced legend. On his latest release, "Bastards", Waits continues to defy categorisation, blending elements of blues, jazz, and vaudeville into a heady musical cocktail that is unmistakably his own.
From the opening track, "Misery is the River of the World", Waits sets the tone for the album with his trademark growl and darkly humorous lyrics. The instrumentation is equally eclectic, with everything from guttural guitar riffs to mournful horns adding texture to the songs.
Standout tracks include "What's He Building in There?", a spoken word piece that finds Waits at his most enigmatic and unsettling, and "God's Away on Business", a rollicking tune that showcases Waits' knack for storytelling.
But it's not all doom and gloom on "Bastards". Tracks like "Take It with Me" and "Come on Up to the House" provide moments of quiet beauty and introspection, showing a softer side to Waits' often gruff persona.
Overall, "Bastards" is a testament to Tom Waits' enduring creativity and ability to surprise and delight his audience. Whether you're a longtime fan or a newcomer to his music, this album is sure to leave you spellbound. So grab a glass of whiskey, sit back, and let Tom Waits take you on a wild musical ride. Cheers to the bastard himself!
