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.
Product Information
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.

Rezensionen
,,Gesanglich gibt Waits wie gewohnt den verliebten Kindermörder und den verlebten Seemann, die animalische Heulsuse und den hoffnungslosen Romantiker, den angesoffenen Schnulzensänger und den melancholischen
Thekennachbarn." (musikexpress, November 2011)
,,Nirgendwo auf dieser Platte herrscht die Dekonstruktion, das Zerstörungswerk der Schlaginstrumente, wie es bei Waits zuletzt beinahe obligatorisch geworden
war. Schrottplatz war gestern, Rekonstruktion ist heute: mehr Schönheit als Schrecken." (Rolling Stone, November 2011)
,,Er torkelt und wankt wie einst, steht aber immer noch aufrecht: Mit ,,Bad As Me" meldet sich Tom Waits eindrucksvoll zurück." (Audio, Dezember 2011)
,,Oft wüst, nicht immer böse, immer genial: ein Ritt durch Waits' Karriere." (Stereoplay, Dezember 2011)
