ANTI is reissuing a remastered version of Tom Waits' album, "Heartattack and Vine," pressed on 180g vinyl! Tom Waits is one of the most innovative artists in international music. His singular vision encompasses everything imaginable from blues to Tin Pan Alley, jazz, and much more. An actor, poet, and master of musical collage, Tom Waits is simply a giant. "Heartattack and Vine" is a Tom Waits album released in 1980 on the Asylum Records label. Tom Waits initially titled it "White Spades" but ultimately chose "Heartattack and Vine" as it was more marketable. The vocals are a "growled-howl" that is Tom Waits' trademark, and the instrumentation is minimalistic: the bass and guitar are harsh and compact.
