This was my intro to Tom Waits and I’m…confused. The music is good. All jazz for this album. The lyrics are ok? Lots of silliness, lots of breakfast food descriptions? Not really sure what to do with this.

Rated 6/10

Considering it was his last album and he knew he was dying, it’s a bit dark and twisted. Taken at face value, however, it’s nowhere near the top of the list for his discography.

Classic album for me. Downtempo electronic at its best. Not a bad song on the album and several standouts.

Surprisingly good. This album was either 10 years before or 10 years behind its time. Had it come out in 1970 or 1990 it would have been recognized as a good album. Instead, it came out in 1980 and was lost in the sauce.

Rated 8/10

Much better than I was expecting. I was only familiar with hits which are good songs but the rest of the album is just as good. Fantastic production and she has a great voice.

Rated 8/10

The new generation’s Bjork. Down tempo electronic meets trip-hop meets pop. Good vocals, lots of texture. Fun through headphones.

Rated 6/10

As with all Wu-Tang related album, the lyrics are brilliant. I feel like the first third of the album’s production is too grimy, though. The music lightens up the further you get into the album.

Rated 6/10

Better than their Surfa Rosa album. More focused, better production. Still hit or miss for me.
