Product Description
From Amazon.com
Now that Beck has effectively exorcised his personal demons with 2002's hyper-confessional Sea Change, he can get back to the business of being a total fruit loop. We all know what that involves: video game sound effects, random shouting in Spanish, and rhymes about popsicles and vegetable vans. And that's just the second track. Guero is like every Beck album condensed into one, a no-holds-barred collision of two-turntables and a microphone with the added bonus of guitars, bossa nova beats, Jack White, lyrics about spaceships and dump truck full of ideas all fighting to get heard about the ruckus. It's an exhausting and exhilarating listen with lots of peaks, such as the digitized power ballad "Broken Drum" and handclap drench folk freak-out "Farewell Ride," and more than enough to restore anyone's faith in Beck as one of the most chaotically inspired songwriters of our time. -- Aidin Vaziri

5.0 out of 5 stars
Guero rocks,
By Calvin (toronto) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Beck:Guero (Audio CD)
this cd is amazing. all the songs are good and there arent any songs that make you cring, like on some other albums. beck is a truly underrated artist, and his music gets no radioplay here, which is a shame. the video for girl is also great, and beck deserves much more recognition.
4.0 out of 5 stars
A joyous and well-rounded outing,

This review is from: Beck:Guero (Audio CD)
First let me qualify this review: I am not a "Beck-head". That said, I appreciated (although was not crazy about) his early discs... However, on Guero, Beck manages to "mature" (such a dirty work in young pop music) gracefully, melding great melodies to shades (instead of globs) of musical inventiveness.The groove feels a bit more organic too. Overall, a truly great disc (for me, almost a "5"). (Thank you to the local - Detroit - NPR station for getting me hooked on it, then buying it on Amazon.ca) Cheers.

This review is from: Beck:Guero (Audio CD)
Received this for my 43rd birthday and now i have to hunt in my 15 year olds room for it. Guess i should buy her a copy too. Absolutely love this cd and all its different musical styles. Along with Weezer's Make Believe, and Garbage's Bleed Like Me, this is a huge favourite in my cd player. I have seen Weezer and Garbage recently, now Beck, please, when will you be here? Love it.
