The tracklist for Ryan Adams' ninth (is it really only ninth?) studio album Easy Tiger was just posted to Billboard.com, featuring such melon-scratchers as "Halloweenhead" and "Oh My God, Whatever, Etc." And what's a guy with an album named Gold doing a song called "Tears of Gold"? OMG, whatever, etc.

Curious titles aside, standout songwriter turned web jester turned Stonehenge crumbler Ryan Adams seems to have taken a bit more time than usual on this Easy Tiger of his, even enlisting the help of your mom's fave-rave Sheryl Crow. If their duet, "Two", even remotely approaches the heights of her Kid Rock-boosted "Picture", we're all in for a treat when the next dentist appointment rolls around.

Adams still has four Mid-Atlantic tour dates planned, all yours (along with the tracklist) after the jump.
