Title: The 4-1-1 on "The Information"
Review: Despite keeping the basic musical formula somewhat consistent over the years, Beck still finds ways to release fresh music. On "The Information", Beck fans can expect the usual doses of dance beats, gazillions of layered samples, and catchy choruses. Some tracks will seem very familiar, yet some will be distinctly new. Beck's typical, unique interpretations of rap music can be found on "Cellphone's Dead" and "1000 bpm", while more alternative-friendly numbers like those on Guero come in the form of "Nausea" and "No Complaints". However, there are some newer musical elements never before heard from the infinitely-talented musician. For example, "Soldier Jane" contains a Middle-Eastern influence that results in (at least in this reviewer's eyes) one of Beck's greatest musical achievements. Overall, "The Information" is a must-own for Beck fans...and definitely check out the accompanying DVD.
