Beck

Mutations for me, is Beck's best album but that seems to be an unpopular opinion. Cold Brains, Lazy Flies, We Live Again, Tropicalia and O Maria are all perfect.

I only have Odelay from Beck mainly because of New Pollution and believe it or not, Jack Ass. What do you think was the song that properl Beck into the mainstream?

I've been a fan since Odelay came out. I loved his work on the Scott Pilgrim vs The World soundtrack. All the Sex Bob-Omb songs he wrote are funny, and really cool lo-fi punkish songs. And wasn't Ramona a stunning song?

Oh my fvck he was part of the OST? That's why it's so good.

Indeed, and I also love the other songs on the soundtrack too like Metric, Broken Social Scene and the Black Lips. Overall great soundtrack for a great movie! Are you going to check out the movie on dvd? It's coming out on November 9th and I'm way stoked.

Yeah they're probably my two favourite Beck albums, they just seem to hit the spot more than his other stuff. After those two I'd probably favour Modern Guilt and Odelay. I could never really get into his first two albums Golden Feelings and A Western Harvest Field By Moonlight, they just seem a bit messy and unlistenable to me.

I wonder will we see a new album any time soon, it's been three years now since Modern Guilt.

Same, Sea Change is the best thing he's ever done I think.
