beck - modern guilt coming .
 
i thinks it's gonna be amazing album (july 8th)

here its the promo video: http://pl.youtube.com/watch?v=XDoYZJL4CcQ

and chemtrails streaming song: www.beck.com

what you think ?

sarramkrop 06.27.2008 03:57 AM

Typical shite album name by Beck.

acousticrock87 06.27.2008 04:04 AM

Chemtrails sounds alright, but the song on the promo sounds like the Information, which I didn't like that much (unless it was playing on that weird ass DVD).

Eh. I'm not expecting a whole lot.

demonrail666 06.27.2008 04:21 AM

I don't know what it is, but I really do have an almost irrational loathing for all things beck. its not even a new thing, from first hearing loser, my first thought was that we have an absolute buffoon on our hands with this one.

acousticrock87 06.27.2008 04:29 AM

I'm kind of the opposite. I've always liked him, but I have no idea why. He doesn't strike me as very smart, his music isn't great, and he's not a very interesting person. But I do like him.

demonrail666 06.27.2008 04:34 AM

maybe the concept that unites us both suggests that nobody really knows why they think about beck, whether in a good or bad way.

acousticrock87 06.27.2008 04:41 AM

Possibly. I wouldn't be surprised if I found out he doesn't exist. I wouldn't be unsurprised, either.

sarramkrop 06.27.2008 04:42 AM

Beck makes sense only if you read his name cause it's in front of you or you can't be bothered to switch off the radio while one of his songs is playing.

After that you realise that you have some shit stuck inside your ears and pick up a cotton bud to get it out.

nicfit 06.27.2008 04:43 AM

edit: fuck wrong thread.

Toilet & Bowels 06.27.2008 04:49 AM

if you got all the music there is, good and bad, and then made an average out of it, you'd have beck

pbradley 06.27.2008 04:50 AM

Beck has always been a decent artist in my book. Not enough for me to buy an album but decent enough to enjoy his singles. This "Modern Guilt" sounds a bit bland, though.

That's it. Beck has been solved.

MellySingsDoom 06.27.2008 04:56 AM

Beck is a magpie artist, taking bits and bobs from other areas of music, then added his waffling vocalese over the top. And he's a god-botherer to boot as well.

Melly sez "no" to Beck.

demonrail666 06.27.2008 04:58 AM

is he really a bible puncher? flippin hell. now i have a concrete reason to really dislike the little fucker

acousticrock87 06.27.2008 05:00 AM

A Bible puncher? Is that like Bible-beater?

MellySingsDoom 06.27.2008 05:01 AM

Yup, he's a fully-signed-up Mormon. When he's singing about "Sexx Laws", he's probably referring to the many edicts that are handed down from Salt Lake City

EDIT: Nope, T&B is right, he's part of the Tom Cruise and WILL FUCKING SMITH club.

better than that, he's a scientologist

demonrail666 06.27.2008 05:02 AM

i dunno. a bible puncher just refers to someone whose into god in a big way.

Yes.

acousticrock87 06.27.2008 05:03 AM

What? I'm pretty sure he's always been a Scientologist. Not that it's any better.

EDIT: Er. Little late on that.

sarramkrop 06.27.2008 05:04 AM

He'd be a twat either way, stop defending him.

i don't mind that he's a scientologist. that's a proper celeb thing to do. if i was a celeb i'd be signing up to become one straight away. scientology parties would be fucking brilliant.

acousticrock87 06.27.2008 05:05 AM

That mormon->moron thing confused the hell out of me for a second.

Toilet & Bowels 06.27.2008 05:05 AM

scientology is far worse than christianity

sarramkrop 06.27.2008 05:08 AM

It's the sort of religious cult for vegetarians and people of little substance. It's also the sort of religion that would be too easily swept off in a war. Not cruel enough.

acousticrock87 06.27.2008 05:10 AM

Scientology is practically open about its motives, and people still follow it. That's the scary part.

yeah, tom cruises everywhere, flying, getting invisible and donating money all around.

sarramkrop 06.27.2008 05:14 AM

Beck is basically music for children.

You're forgetting the fact that you'd end up being cornered by Will Smith telling you about Live 8 and how serious an actor he is, and how his wife's atrocious nu-metal band is so kickin'. Also, he'd say to you in a quiet voice, "Hey demon, your name is a little, uh, Satanic. You should change your name to "scientologyruleslol'".

mil_pl 06.27.2008 05:20 AM

i fuckin like him, so fuck off bastards :p
he is doin really good music, light as a feather, so i enjoy listening to him.
i dont like hard rock fuckers.

sarramkrop 06.27.2008 05:31 AM

No I don't. What are you saying?

mil_pl 06.27.2008 05:34 AM

all that noise for example Hidros 3 - is shit.
rather ripped its not original though. so beck is not doin nothing wrong.

Pookie 06.27.2008 05:35 AM

He's saying shut yo' mouth.

I wouldn't stand for it.

Yes, she does:

Toilet & Bowels 06.27.2008 05:43 AM

to be fair hidros 3 is rubbish but that's mats gustaffson's fault because he wrote it all.

mats gustaffson, now there's someone who's shit.

An all-black metal band in cool in principle, but I think her band are pretty woeful - I saw them on a You Tube clip of them performing on the David Letterman, and thought them so bad I laughed throughout. Not quite the reaction she's after, I suspect.
