Has Scarlett Johansson gone out on a limb for her upcoming album?

Judging from this picture, yes. But listen to the music and decide for yourself. Though the disc doesn't drop until May 20, we've got a stream of six tracks from Anywhere I Lay My Head, her album of 10 Tom Waits covers and one original tune.

It's got a swampy, soulful Phil Spector-y vibe (don't worry, that's a musical Phil Spector vibe), and doesn't sound anything like your typical actress-turned-singer disco mess.

But that's just us. What do you think?
