Album Notes & Community Reviews
Released simultaneously with 'Alice', 'Blood Money' is a more aggressive and misanthropic exploration of dark cabaret. Tom Waits leans heavily into avant-garde rock and theatrical instrumentation to deliver a nihilistic, apocalyptic worldview. The album bristles with passionate, abrasive energy and poetic cynicism.
