Title: Beck is Back
Review: I adore Beck so I am biased to begin with. That being said, I love this CD. Is it as good as 'Mutations'? Well, no but that is because it's different...it's melancholy all the way through without any quirky rhymes or instrumentations. Initially, I wasn't too sure about this but after a couple of spins it grew on me.Don't get me wrong though, it's still Beck. For those of you who have listened to him through the years/phases, this won't surprise you at all as he has a tendency to shift gears rapidly from one CD to the next. This is about as far away from "Midnite Vultures" as you can possibly get.As with all of his CD's he is sticking with a genre, 'Odelay' was heavy on 60's sound, 'Mutations' country/folk, Midnite Vultures 80's synth with a dash of funk and 'Sea Change' is well, humm...folk meets 70's lite meets the Cure, meets The Smiths, kind of..hard to describe really but worth the effort.
