We all know BECK is inventive, creative & generally lovely so much so that critics & his fans find him almost impossible to categorize. with a bonus DVD with a short film for each song. This being a Nigel Godrich collaboration you know it's going to sound divine. Godrich has worked with the likes of RADIOHEAD, PAUL MCCARTNEY & STEPHEN MALKMUS. There are so many genres covered here that the first few listens may seem daunting. There are elements of funk, indie rock, electro & (& what seems to be BECK's most straight forward attempt at) hip-hop. This is a swelling musical adventure. If you are a fan of his albums "Odelay" or "Guero" but were wondering what they might sound like under the meticulous eye of Mr. Godrich then you must get this.
