Redpill me on Tom Waits, Sup Forums
If you like his music, I think you'll enjoy listening to it. If you don't like his music, I don't think you will enjoy listening to it.
Shit
He's great - so long as you don't mind the fact that all his musical stylings are just a rip-off of Harry Partch...
Thanks this really helped
Absolute genius
it's bad
Love his first 7 albums
Fun Fact: The stripper on the front cover of Small Change is Cassandra Peterson AKA Elvira, Mistress of The Dark.
Bad As Me is criminally underrated and Bone Machine is his best
you forgot Ken Nordine
Not that good, quite overrated actually.
Dumb cunt
He's great. Marc Ribot on guitar here
One of the greatest. Has had a consistent career right up until now. Great voice, great lyrics, lots of humour and genre melding. Take a look, he's a fine primitivist innovator.
He used to be one of trademarks of Sup Forums, together with metal, NMH and Radiohead, back in the old days. I'm not sure why he lost his popularity here. Anyone knows?
(pic related as evidence)
He hasn't been active for a while. And mu seems overrun with shitposters so it's hard to get a decent conversation going.
Mule Variations is really accessible and gives me the warm and fuzzies. Rain Dogs is really accessible too.
Proto quirky so deep faggot
wtf i like tom waits now
Well he never became a meme, he was just discussed in normal discussions and only meme artists survive long time
I think waits is an underrated lyricist
Arithmetic arithmetock
Turn the hands back on the clock
How does the ocean rock the boat?
How did the razor find my throat?
The only strings that hold me here
Are tangled up around the pier
Frank's Wild Years is his best album
Prove me wrong
Listen to Tom Traubert's Blues. If it doesn't impress you / move you / do something to you then you probably have low IQ.

In addition to writing moving songs he's also innovative and hilarious.
Harry Partch is great though, you make it sound like Harry Partch with more edge is a bad thing, Swordfishtrombones is easily one of the greatest albums of all time
WASTED AND WOUNDED
