Default Guero

What are everyones thoughts on Guero, Beck's new album? I think it is brilliant, with not a bad song on there. I'd give it 9 out of 10, just for the fact that some of his lyrics contradict other lyrics in the same song.

9/10 for me too. Great album and he still sticks to his great original style.

He is possibly the most innovative and original solo singer of our generation.

Ooo, Beck is awesome! I love E-pro and Girl from that album.

Que Onda Guero is fantastic, also look up Hell Yes. That is superb. Girl is good, but E-Pro gets a little yawnsome.

I don't understand how you can't not like it. I don't own any of his previous work, but if it's somehow better than this then it must be brilliant. What would be the best Beck album then?

d be either Odelay, Mutations or Seachange, they're quite different records. I'd have to reccomend Odelay though, if you like Guero so much.
