I'm not normally a huge Beck fan...I fall into what is probably a pretty small camp of folk that think he's a bit overrated.
BUUUUUT...this is one of my all time favorite songs. With the bad luck I've had in past relationships,
"I think I'm in love,
But it makes me kinda nervous to say so" resonates strongly with me....

Beck puts out great music. For Beck, being an artist isn't about making it to the top of the billboard charts or getting airplay. Beck plays whatever type of music he wants. He doesn't follow "formulas" to get to more mainstream success, he plays whatever he feels like on any given day. And it's always so darn good.Elevator Music the first track on Beck's latest, The Information. Lyrics:I'm uptight superGathered out of the frameI shake a leg on the groundLike an epilepti... MORE

This latest Beck has been my favorite new disc for at least the past 2-3 months. I love this track, funky with some surreal rhyming. The Dust Bros. and Beck are also kicking it musically with a Herbie Hancock variation and this exotic Beach Boys harmony break. Genius!

While I'm not as into Beck as I used to be, I still love a lot of his stuff, especially this track, which is from his most recent album, The Information.Not a big fan of everything on the album (I liked Guero better), but I do enjoy some of the songs on it. This one's probably, for me, the best track on it. It kinda sounds... I don't know. Like he went into a studio one day, and picked up some random items, and then said "here, guys, we're gonna use these." And yet it all ... MORE

Got this album in November, wasn't impressed at all, and pretty much stopped listening to it after the first few days. Last week I decided to give it another try, and I must say i was completely wrong. This album is great, especially the first half. "Elevator Music", "Think I'm In Love", "Cellphones Dead", "Strange Apparation", "Soldier Jane" and "Nausea" are all really good songs. The rest of the album isn't quite as memorable (or i suppose accessable) but I am listening ... MORE

What a great single. I fucking love Beck.
The dude may be a Scientologist, but he's always welcome to put out new stuff. Why can't everyone else sound like Beck?
If you haven't heard 'Nausea,' you can check it out here. It's not an official video, but the song is there in full. It sounds so organic, like they're playing it on the street.

...if you're into Beck's music/ humor / taste in couture, KCRW (89.9 FM) is going to air an interview and live session at 11PM on Halloween night (10/31, Pacific Standard)-- I'd imagine one would be able to listen online here. ...if they want to choke on the splinters outside the LA airspace...

Normally I'd post about an album only after listening to it enough times to really form a solid opinion. Seeing as how this came out today though, I'm really curious to know how it's being received by you guys. And I'm sure there are other posts about the album in the mog-o-sphere already, but my ego can't be sated just posting responses to other people's mog entries. Basically, I'm really gonna have to break the album in. It's not instantly likeable like the majority of... MORE

Hey all, I am an Arizona native currently living in Germany. In my spare time (when I'm not doing my real job), I am pretty much a music nerd and really like bands like Radiohead, Beck, Calexico, Elliot Smith, Queens of the Stone Age, Death Cab for Cutie, and have been getting into a bunch of Indie bands lately. I like all kinds of other music to include Jazz, Bossa Nova, Clasical, House/DJ, others.. ..I am still pretty buzzed about some of the concerts I caught this summe... MORE

Ok....I have been working on my list for Top 10 releases for 2006, starting early, so I can start moving on into 2007 without looking back..I have really been struggling with who is on my Top 10 and the order. To be honest, I really liked several different releases equally, so its pretty difficult to choose...Of course, I did not listen to every release and I have my usual favorites and biases...but hey, it my Top 10...so here goes.. 1. Beck – The Information - - I con... MORE

First listen on the advanced but my initial impression is that it's very good.Feels more together than Guero. I want to say it's his best since Midnite Vultures but that might give you the wrong impression (as I completely loved Sea Change) but it's much more groove-able than that release. Guero was the lead up to this one. You know what? I'll go out on a limb to predict my near-future opinion of The Information and say I find it completely amazing and Beck solidifies hi... MORE
