Beck's long-awaited (unless you're immortal, in which case two years is the blink of an eye) followup to The Information has graduated from bastard-child whisper to full-fledged respectable today, as we finally get a name and release date on the Danger Mouse produced album. Modern Guilt will hit streets on July 8th, unless you live across the pond (those lucky Euros get to spend their euros a day earlier).
According to Beck's camp, "Musically, the album's ten tracks vacillate between economy and experimentation, hybrid and pop classicism, while consistently manifesting Beck and Danger Mouse's shared interest in psych-rock, folk, electronic minimalism and orchestration." What does this actually mean? Who the hell knows! It's a Beck album! Don't look a gift horse in the mouth! Just read the tracklist!
