From Tom Waits's website:

"There have been rumblings and rumors. New music from Tom Waits, you say? Come to TomWaits.com on Tuesday August 23rd, and Mr. Waits himself will set the record straight. "

I heard Keith Richards would play guitars on this new cd.
First singles August 23rd: Bad As Me


Hear a 30-second snippet of “Bad As Me” here:

Fuck Keith Richards

He's playing on Rain Dogs and Bone Machine (both excelent albums).

Agreed, but I still dislike him heavily.

CLAP HANDS, CLAP HANDS!

Me too... I'll check the website tomorow for mor detail.

There was a kid doing covers and an original around here who was just pretending to be Tom Waits. He did "Sex and Candy" by Marcy Playground...that was funny.

I'm looking forward to this a lot; Tom Waits is one of my favorite artists.

Such a great/distinctive voice.

I love Tom Waits so so much, I've been checking the website all day and still nothing is up. I guess he's in the USA so different time zones and that...

The info is there now:

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.
