Thanks for the link! Can't wait to hear all the other songs, especially his versions of Shadow of a Doubt and Expressway.

Thanks for the link. I'm so curious to see how this will turn out.

I remain seriously weirded out by this whole thing...

barnaclelapse · 07.15.2009, 09:37 AM

Yeah, what gives?

Personally, I think it's badass.

Gang Of One · 07.15.2009, 10:21 AM

I've just heard Beck's version of Green Light and on the first hearing i think it's kinda lame and lazy. Like yeah behind all of Sonic Youth songs there's a melody that could be played on an acoustic guitar and bla bla bla
I don't want to hear Evol unplugged, i'd rather hear him rap on Marylin Moore or whatever. At least bring something original, at least make something gorgeous and beautiful but different out of those beautiful songs.
I'm interested in the concept but since i've not heard a great Beck's song since Odelay or Midnite Vultures, i have little faith in it.

but he looks like thurston, sooooo... it'll probably work just fine...

dirty bunny · 07.15.2009, 01:40 PM

I'm certainly interested in hearing it, although I don't have high hopes for covers of things like "Green Light", even if it is Beck. It could be good, it could be blah.

joe11121 · 07.15.2009, 02:48 PM

I don't have anything to play cassettes

hopefully someone can post it somewhere.
Anyway, I'm excited to hear it.

dirty bunny · 07.15.2009, 04:06 PM

OK my doubts are easing here, because I just heard them do "Femme Fatale" which totally blew my mind. I think it actually might be better than the original. Wow.

07.15.2009, 04:41 PM

Beck shouldn't talk or sing altogether.

I have my moments.

OK, time for bed!

notyourfiend · 07.15.2009, 04:54 PM

I don't know exactly why I find it so strange. Maybe it's the Empty Page video? Who knows. I'm a fan of Beck but the whole scientology thing is a bit much.

but, even w/ that said...w/ all the shit thats said about scientology, theres some ultra talented people amongst its members.

becks awesome.

i guess its a good thing you dont judge sonic youth on the fact that kim and thurston had a (more or less) traditional catholic wedding. just as much dirt there (in the catholic church) as in anywhere else.

dude. i like beck! i was just saying that for some reason the whole beck covering evol thing gives me a wierd vibe. i can't control it! i'll probably wind up buying it anyway though....

I'm waiting for the release... and then, I'll link it here. As it should be.
