Review: Beck - Beck : Modern Guilt

Beck news, reviews, videos, photo gallery and free mp3 playlist.

Modern Guilt is nothing to write home about, but I appreciate its honesty; somehow it feels more sincere than Beck's last album, The Information. Lyrically, this album is multi-faceted and interesting. Musically, however, it's a bit of a disappointment.

The album starts out slow � "Orphans", the opener, is all right, but it's certainly no "Devil's Haircut" or "Sexx Laws" � then again, this album is certainly no Odelay or Midnite Vultures. "Gamma Ray" is more upbeat, with interesting lyrics but a dull and boring chorus. Oh, but what's this? It's time to play "Spot the Beck Motifs"! Number one: "refugee."...
