I really like Beck. I'm glad Modern Guilt was good, and that he hasn't lost his touch yet.

haha, yes! I know for sure he used the puppets foe the music video for Nausea, which was on The Information. I would post the video but it won't let me.
Here is the video.

It is cool because all the puppets look like the members of Beck. haha, it really is neat.

I like the compliation of covers that he put together for child poverty...

I've liked Beck for a long time... and he's never swayed in quality. Excellent artist. Odelay! and Guero will remain among my favorite albums of all time.

I think Gamma Ray was definitely in my Top 10 songs of 2008.

I'm surprised by how much I loved Modern Guilt. I never really *loved* beck but found Modern Guilt totally refreshing and accessible (maybe the opposite for some people?). I don't know why but I didn't really like the saccharine sweetness and banality of "Time Bomb."

Mutations is so underrated when people talk about mellow Beck they bring up Sea Change but Mutations is where it's at. Also the man's site never disappoints. He's been putting up acoustic versions of tracks from Modern Guilt and had a really interesting conversation with Tom Waits.

As far as Beck goes for me,there are wild variations in quality between albums.
Odelay is great stuff,as is Mellow Gold and Sea Change.
Modern Guilt and Mutations are good not great.
Midnite Vultures and Guero are rubbish.

Anyone else find this?
