Erstes Studioalbum des US-Songwriters seit sieben Jahren.
Tom Waits hat immer wieder Alben produziert, die das Vergangene noch mal verfeinerten und gleichzeitig das Fenster in die Zukunft öffneten, etwa "Rain Dogs" (1985) und "Mule Variations" (1999). "Bad As Me" wird sich dazugesellen. Das erste Album des US-Songwriters mit neuem Material seit "Real Gone" (2004) präsentiert Waits mit der besten Stimme seiner Karriere und auf dem Höhepunkt seiner Songwriter-Kunst. Dabei stehen die Lieder stellvertretend für den Facettenreichtum, mit dem uns der Kalifornier seit Jahrzehnten beglückt. Wunderbare Balladen ("Last Leaf"), Klanglandschaften in Cinemascope ("Hell Broke Luce"), Blues-Stücke wie "Raised Right Men" stehen neben Gospel-Tracks wie "Satisfied", und einmal steigt Waits’ Stimme sogar bis zum Falsett empor ("Talking At The Same Time"). Im März 2011 wurde Tom Waits in die Rock and Roll Hall of Fame aufgenommen. Auf "Bad As Me" hört man, warum.
Bad As Me is Tom Waits’ first studio album of all new music in seven years. This pivotal work refines the music that has come before and signals a new direction. Waits, in possibly the finest voice of his career, worked with a veteran team of gifted musicians and longtime co-writer/producer Kathleen Brennan. From the opening horn-fueled chug of “Chicago,” to the closing barroom chorale of “New Year’s Eve,” Bad As Me displays the full career range of Waits’ songwriting, from beautiful ballads like “Last Leaf,” to the avant cinematic soundscape of “Hell Broke Luce,” a battlefront dispatch. On tracks like “Talking at the Same Time,” Waits shows off a supple falsetto, while on blues burners like “Raised Right Men” and the gospel tinged “Satisfied” he spits, stutters and howls. Like a good boxer, these songs are lean and mean, with strong hooks and tight running times. A pervasive sense of players delighting in each other’s musical company brings a feeling of loose joy even to the album’s saddest songs.
Throughout his career, Tom Waits has created milestone albums that serve both to refine the music that has come before, and to signal a new phase in his career. Bad As Me, is his first studio album of all new music in seven years, which finds Tom Waits in possibly the finest voice of his career and at the height of his songwriting powers, working with a veteran team of gifted musicians and longtime co-writer/producer Kathleen Brennan. From the opening horn-fueled chug of “Chicago,” to the closing barroom chorale of “New Year’s Eve,” Bad As Me displays the full career range of Waits’ songwriting, from beautiful ballads like “Last Leaf,” to the avant cinematic soundscape of “Hell Broke Luce,” a battlefront dispatch.
