Modern Guilt
On July 8, 2008 Beck's latest album Modern Guilt was released. Produced by Danger Mouse, the album offers ten tracks and according to Variety, incorporates rhythmic instrumental layers giving a modern take on Syd Barrett.Variety: Beck- 'Modern Guilt'(July 9, 2008) The album's running time is 34 minutes.Modern Guilt Reviews
"Lyrically strong, with recurring themes of identity, rejuvenation and various steps on the ladder of hope, weariness pervades Beck's vocals. There's an undercurrent, though, that fatigue has not led him to give up; instead, he's peering around the corner for a new direction, even asking how people can live while constantly looking over their shoulders."—VarietyVariety: Beck- 'Modern Guilt'(July 9, 2008)"Today, even as a married father nearing 40, he has managed to remain as musically idiosyncratic as ever. But on Modern Guilt, a simmering cauldron of postmillennial tension helmed by musician/DJ/producer Danger Mouse (a.k.a. Brian Burton), time is no longer an abstract for silly wordplay; it's a remorseless force of nature."—Entertainment WeeklyEntertainment Weekly: Modern Guilt Music Review(July 4, 2008)
