You can hear Tom Waits' new Bad As Me (for real this time) before it comes out next week

Back in August, card-carrying droll MF Tom Waits promised fans an online listening party for his new record, Bad As Me. Instead, he posted a video on YouTube and rued the few bad apples preventing him from sharing his music. Well, forget all that: Waits is sending listening codes to fans on his mailing list that will allow them to stream the album on the Bad As Me website. If you're not on the list yet, you can head to the site to join, and receive an invite to the listening party. Bad As Me comes out Oct. 25 in the U.S., and Oct. 24 in Europe. [via Pitchfork]
