giraffo Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 I guess I apparently think Beck can do no wrong. This just seems different but better (than Guero and Information at least) to me. I'm not all the way through, but a lot of what I'm hearing is pretty good to me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blureu Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 I'm not sure if this has been mentioned but lyrics are included with the CD. There is no artwork. Also - I got this bit of info from an e-mail blast. Has anyone seen this 7"? Beck - Modern Guilt CD (DGC)Initial copies come with a bonus 7" 45 of "Chemtrails" b/w the non-LP track "Vampire Voltage No. 6." CD now, vinyl due 7/22. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bigideas Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 Pink MoonWhich WillParasite I can post'em here later tonight - great.should be interesting to hear him 'recreate them exactly.' one song off of Sea Change was compared to River Man a lot. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

echo Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 Thank you for the Drake tracks! Still think the new record is the best since Sea Change (his best!)! Love Chemtrails... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GtrPlyr Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 I'm digging this one more than the last 2 so far. p.s. Thanks for the Drake covers PAL . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
isadorah Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 I too am diggin' this album. although haven't had the chance to give it a thorough listen, what i've heard so far, I LIKE! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
junkiesmile Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 Yeah, I'm digging it as well. I love Guero also. There are some really good songs on there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bigideas Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 i'm not sure what i think yet.i don't think it ever reaches the "highs" of any of his other albums Odelay on (i don't have those 3 early records).track 8 or 9 the vocals are too low in the mix. it just sounds like Beck mumbling.

stooka Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 I too am diggin' this album. although haven't had the chance to give it a thorough listen, what i've heard so far, I LIKE! I picked up a copy and listened to it on my way to and from a haircut. I'm thinking this one is a home run! Maybe a little short, but it's something I can get use to......and the cds not bad either!

deepseacatfish Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 Just recently picked this up. I like it, definitely. It's consistently interesting and while it doesn't necessarily have the highs/hooks of some of his other stuff I think it will stay in rotation for a while with me. Chemtrails is a sweet tune.

bigideas Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 Chemtrails really sounds similar - the beginning/slow verses to one of the Mutation b-sides.This review is pretty close to how I feel about the record at this point in time: http://www.austin360.com/blogs/content/sha...t_found_mo.html Beck Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Duck-Billed Catechist Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 What's the deal?You think he was talking about Modern Guilt, but it turns out that he was describing his hair cut. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
quarter23cd Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 I'll preface this by saying I'm not really a Beck fan--I haven't bought a cd since Odelay got played to death and haven't really been able to tolerate him except in small doses ever since then. But I am actually liking this album. Its understated and doesn't feel like what I would expect from Beck. It didn't immediately grab me, but it is growing on me quickly.

M. (hristine Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 In short, he became an adult.This has gotten really trite. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EL the Famous Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 This has gotten really trite. 'what happened to our youth?' seriously...if he was still releasing tunes like 'loser' or even 'where it's at' at this point in his career, i'd find that kind of sad. also, i think calling this one a 'grower' was an understatement. i'm really enamored w/ this album.

cryptique Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 I don't mind this album. Coming from me, that's high praise for a Beck album. I don't really care for his stuff in general. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
