This album was the studio version of the music from Tom Waits, Robert Wilson, and William S. Burroughs play; The Black Rider: The Casting of the Magic Bullets. And, it was Waits' twelfth album. It's quite beautiful, and also quite varying. It has some songs that are exciting; like The Black Rider, some that are depressing; like The Last Rose Of Summer, and some that are absolutely weird; like Oily Night. It's guaranteed to give you nightmares and steal your soul, but sorry - no money back.
An excerpt from The Black Rider's-
November
With my hair slicked back
With carrion shellac
With the blood from a pheasant
And the bone from a hare
Tied to the branches
Of a roebuck stag
Left to wave in the timber
Like a buck shot flag
November
With my hair slicked back
With carrion shellac
With the blood from a pheasant
And the bone from a hare
Tied to the branches
Of a roebuck stag
Left to wave in the timber
Like a buck shot flag

Get the dominic black mug.The unholy day of rest between Black Friday and Cyber Monday after faithful materialists sacrifice fellow worshippers underfoot in the name of the Almighty Dollar.
"Hey, do you want to go to the mall with me today?"
"No thanks, I'm celebrating Black Sabbath by opening all the gifts I pried from someone else's cold dead fingers yesterday."
"God bless Merica!"

Get the Black flagged mug.A vow made to a tree with a face.
An action to evade punishment.
Discarding all your achievements, and start all over again.
Word came from Night's Watch, an order of formerly criminals, bastards and broken men defending the Wall from all enemies.
