I was always partial to Bone Machine - both the Tom Waits album and the Pixies song

Swordfishtrombones and Rain Dogs are also for you, then. It is my favorite era, though I love every album and every style he’s performed.

I love every second of it, but it was regarded at the time (1999) as kind of “meh” by the critics. I still think of it as “new” Tom Waits.
