cockrocker788 Posted July 5, 2004 Report Share Posted July 5, 2004 Sup guys, i was just wondering what was yall's favorite Beck album. I'm gonna go with Mutations because its a little more mellow and accoustic than his other works. :guitar: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindCrime Posted July 5, 2004 Report Share Posted July 5, 2004 I would say Mellow Gold, it was under producted, but had a few good songs, like Beercan & Blackhole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cosmosis Posted July 16, 2004 Report Share Posted July 16, 2004 I think Mellow is a masterpiece, but my favorite is Stereopathetic Soul Manure. I love the rawness of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XXX Posted August 14, 2004 Report Share Posted August 14, 2004 Odelay :: I remember listening to that for months after I got it when it first came out "The New Pollution" is one of my all time faves from the 90s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuzikTyme Posted August 14, 2004 Report Share Posted August 14, 2004 I've always liked Beck but I've never added more than Odelay to my collection. I need to do something about that because I don't believe I've heard a song by Beck that I didn't like. It seems every time I think of Beck, this song pops up in my head. It's very catchy. It takes earworm to a new level. It's a... ~Devil's Haircut~ Something's wrong 'cause my mind is fading And everywhere I look there's a dead end waiting Temperature's dropping at the rotten oasis Stealing kisses from the leperous faces Heads are hanging from the garbage man trees Mouthwash jukebox gasoline Pistols are pointing at a poor man's pockets Smiling eyes ripping out of his sockets Got a devil's haircut in my mind Got a devil's haircut in my mind Got a devil's haircut in my mind Got a devil's haircut in my mind Love machines on the sympathy crutches Discount orgies on the dropout buses Hitching a ride with the bleeding noses Coming to town with the brief case blues Got a devil's haircut in my mind Got a devil's haircut in my mind Got a devil's haircut in my mind Got a devil's haircut in my mind Something's wrong 'cause my mind is fading Ghetto-blastin' disintegrating Rock 'n' roll, know what I'm sayin' And everywhere I look there's a devil waiting Got a devil's haircut in my mind Got a devil's haircut in my mind Got a devil's haircut in my mind Got a devil's haircut in my mind Devil's haircut! In my mind! Devil's haircut! In my mind! Devil's haircut! In my mind! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcM Posted August 15, 2004 Report Share Posted August 15, 2004 "Loser" is the song that pops into my head when I think of Beck. I dont have any Beck albums, though. Just the single for "Loser." It's a very catchy song and the lyrics are great! Loser In the time of chimpanzees I was a monkey, butane in my veins so I'm out to get the junkie with the plastic eyeballs, spraypaint the vegetables, dog food stalls with the beefcake pantyhose, kill the headlights and put it in neutral, stockcar flaming with a loser in the cruise control, baby's in Reno with the vitamin D, got a couple of couches, sleep on the love seat, someone came sayin' I'm a saint (I'm insane) to complain about a shotgun wedding and a stain on my shirt, don't believe everything that you breathe, you get a parking violation and a maggot on your sleeve, so shave your face with some mace in the dark, saving all your food stamps for burning down the trailer park, yo, cut it Soy un perdedor, I'm a loser baby so why don't you kill me, double barrel buckshot, Soy un perdedor, I'm a loser baby so why don't you kill me, forces of evil on a bozo nightmare, ban all the music with a phony gas chamber cause one's got a weasel and others got a flag, one's on the pole, shove the other in the bag, with the rerun shows and cocaine nose job, the daytime crap of the folk singers slop, he hung himself with a guitar string, a slab of turkey neck and it's hangin' from a pigeon wing, I can't write if ya' can't relate, trade the cash for the beef for the body for the hate, and my time is a piece of wax, fallen on a termite, who's chokin' on the splinters Soy un perdedor, I'm a loser baby so why don't you kill me get crazy with the cheez-wiz, Soy un perdedor, I'm a loser baby so why don't you kill me drive, by, body pierce yo bring it on down Soy (em llik uoy t'nod yhw os ybab resol a m'I, rodedrep nu yoS) I'm a driver, I'm a winner things are gonna' change I can feel it Soy un perdedor, I'm a loser baby so why don't you kill me I can't believe it Soy un perdedor, I'm a loser baby so why don't you kill me Soy un perdedor, I'm a loser baby so why don't you kill me Sprechen sie deutsch, baby Soy un perdedor, I'm a loser baby so why don't you kill me You know what I'm sayin' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XXX Posted August 15, 2004 Report Share Posted August 15, 2004 I think the b-side to that single is "Corvette Bummer" It's so... so blase You should definitely get Odelay. Mellow Gold has a couple of good tunes too - esp. "Pay No Mind (Snoozer)" :guitar: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earth-Angel Posted September 3, 2004 Report Share Posted September 3, 2004 Odelay - because there are more good tracks on this album than on the others. You don't end up skipping through so many songs. Mellow gold was good too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cosmosis Posted September 3, 2004 Report Share Posted September 3, 2004 Anybody heard that Midnite Vultures album? That's some seriously funky music. There's some points that make me wonder if that's a white boy singing. It's great for any occasion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farin Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 Odelay, followed closely by Midnite Vultures he just has such an amazing range of musical styles, from Funk, Electronia, Hip-Hop, Country, Rock, Soul, and numerous others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slowhand Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 I'm in the Mellow Gold camp myself, it's the best I've heard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
