Try as I might, the only albums I could ever get into were Bitte Orca and Swing Lo. Definitely agree with the sentiment that there’s a lot of inter-fan divisiveness, and my list is likely to not agree with most people’s. Based on those two albums though, my faves:

1. Dance For You
2. No Intention
3. Irresponsible Tune
4. Cannibal Resource
5. Useful Chamber
6. Impregnable Question
7. Unto Caesar
8. Two Doves
9. Swing Lo Magellan
10. Just From Chevron

I can hear music just fine. And the person above you mentioned the image too. And I think the music is aesthetically displeasing and in no way challenging or interesting other than that she’s making something you wouldn’t expect someone who looks like her to make.

Just as long as long as I’m not wrong, that’s all that matters. Thanks for weighing in. Dipshit.

I’ve listened to all of her albums and don’t see the appeal at all. I’ve already seen a few 5 star reviews for this album, which leaves me feeling left out. I guess for a lot of people it’s about the image, message, concept, etc. The music doesn’t even begin to hold up for me though on its own without all the background. Downvote me because my personal tastes don’t agree with yours all you want.

I like it a whole lot. Probably listened to it 30 times or so already. The production is indeed phenomenal and probably his single greatest achievement in that regard. I think the melodies are incredibly strong and affecting, and the arrangements are straight up masterful on songs like ‘Heart is a Drum’ and ‘Blackbird Chain’, as well as the two singles and really the majority of the album. Definitely the best thing I’ve heard so far this year. His voice and self-harmonies are definitely a high water mark in his career. Good job Beck. Jury is still out for me on whether this is his best album. It certainly seems to be the most enjoyable to listen to, but maybe it’s just the novelty. I don’t care much either way.

Now to start apologizing for that fur coat ‘fore Moz gets up on ya.

Good thing he didn’t say ‘She’s nothin but a lyin’ ass bitch’. That wouldn’t have gone over well either. I miss Fishbone. They were my favorite band in middle school. Maybe this means more shows to raise some money, or else it’s time to declare bankruptcy. Stick to headwalking I guess.

That was nice. First song by these guys I’ve ever really been able to get into despite numerous attempts.
