everyone knows I hate Beck and his stupid shit, not because it is eclectic, but because it is so very GENERICALLY eclectic.
I prefer variety myself. I like butthole surfers records, or cornelius, or albums where the band is rocking in as many ways as they feel like. Of course they need to pull the shit off.
I also like unity. I like cohesion in albums as well, but this is mostly a result of the band involved. Mudhoney for example, only has two songs. arocking bluesy rmp or a slow bluesy dirge. with those two "songs" they fill up 3-4 albums of music. The melvins are the same way. There are many bands I love that have cohesive sounds throughout their albums. Again, if you do this, you have to be very good or else it wil all sound like filler.
