Good god this album is annoying. Before I listened to it I would have said I was a fan of Beck’s based on the singles, so I was surprised to find how much I disliked this onslaught on nonsensical noise. Just awful.

Horrid.

This album was so annoying and pretentious it was painful to listen to. How this man won a Best Record Grammy I will never know. Almost every time a song sounded like it was going in a nice direction, it diverted in a nonsensical, unpleasant way. I hated this record. I award Beck 1 star, and may God have mercy on his soul. Notable Tracks: - Hotwax - only notable because of how much I despised this song - Minus - a decent punk song 2/10

Hoe hebben mensen dit ooit 3.5 gegeven, pretentieus. Mijn tweede 1

Awful

Some very clever ideas, executed in quite a dull way.

Not for me track 3 and track 10 goes into my playlist but aside from that not something id listen to, voice doesn't do it for me but quite like moments in songs, with different instruments and riffs, a lot of the songs were just noise

No thank you

Couple of good songs. Not really my thing though

Worst album ive ever listened to

The last song in the album keeps this from being a 1/10, but while they were trying to be interesting, they forgot the music did still need to be good. Just not something I want to listen to.

Eclectic mix of genres. I miss the thematic, or stylistic continuity, even at a song level.

Este no es de mi rollo, todo muy igual, me aburriría en un concierto. Llevo la mitad, a ver que tal sigue... Nada, no me ha gustado. Ya lo siento

nope... that pig?? noise was the worst to listen to that day...

Nah. Did nothing for me.

Not for me

Ich konnte mit der Musik auf diesem Album nicht warm werden.

Shut up Beck.

I think they had an old printer and a 56k modem in the studio. These background sounds are horrible

Not my thing. Kinda jangling on my nerves…

Call me a hater because I didn’t like this at all. I’m even the right age for this to be a seminal work. But I never “got” Beck. I enjoy weird. But this is mostly nonsensical. It feels like I’m being trolled the entire time listening to it. I look forward to never doing so again. 1/5

I’m torn, because I really liked the first song, but absolutely hated the second, and the rest of the album was a mix of mediocre and fine. Even the songs themselves started good sometimes and then went downhill. This album bas potential and was almost good, but the vibes were just off and that good first song is not enough to warrant a high ranking. I also kept hoping for loser baby but it’s not on this album apparently, if it had been it would’ve been enough to catapult this into a 3

Okay, I’m biased because I’ve never liked Beck. I saw him live in 2016, and his stage presence was as painful as his music. At least now I can say I gave him another try, and my opinion still holds. For me, this album was as objectively terrible as Trout Mask Replica. The difference is, Beck takes himself waaayyyy to seriously about it.

Beck is weird. I think we can all agree on that. Whether in a good or bad way is up to the listener. Not really a fan of his stuff in general other than Loser.

only listened to a couple songs, didn't like the vibe

Amerikanischer Gitarrenrock mittlerer Güte, nicht gut...

As awful as every other album produced in the 90’s. I couldn’t get through it.

droll

Boring lol

thanks I hate it

Nope

I wasn’t able to listen until the end. It was a pain to listen to

Not my thing really.

like couldn't finish it cuz it was too screechy

Another one that is not close to what I like.

Nope.

Shit. Absolute and utter shite.

Herre min skapare vad gräsligt detta var. Alltid haft dålig koll på Beck och kände på förhand att det var en lite pinsam kunskapslucka, men det kan jag ju skatta mig lycklig för med facit i hand. Det här kanske var nyskapande när det kom, i så fall förmodligen av den enkla anledningen att det inte föresvävat någon att göra sån smörja tidigare. Fan vad provocerad jag blev av det här.

He definitely has different styles across his albums. This style is not one that I like. A lot of it sounds grating, not musical.

Just not my vibe.

Not my style.

super engaging, lots of really cool ideas

High 5 and Derelict is pretty nice, otherwise terrible songs. Ramshackle is ok. I get it, it's experimental, but it's not the "hey I bought some exotic spices, let's make a fun dish" kind of experiment, it's more like "a test-tube blew up in my face" kinda vibe. Me not likey.

Hot garbage. Couldn’t get through the entire thing. I didn’t like this at all.

not for me

An art student attempts to create OK Computer

For whatever reason, Beck has never clicked with me.

Ok because I actually hated this album so much I wanted to skip every single song because it made me so angry. Like actually it was awful every aspect of it from the weird robotic sounds that fit nowhere but were everywhere to the singing which was just trash this time. NOT a fan.

The first album on the list I’ve never listened to, by a band I never really got into. Beck isn’t totally my cup of tea. I find most of the audio distortion he uses to really grate in my ears and his talk-sing style I’ve never found too appealing. The one song I liked was “Where It’s At” and even that has an annoying squeaky sound during the chorus. I found some songs completely intolerable, and the ones that were listenable were rather boring. And that hidden track of computers having sex was enough to even put Ciara over the edge. I can’t ever really see my listening to this again and though I tried, I stand by my thought that Beck just isn’t for me.

I just can't force myself to listen to this album again. Way oversaturated on Beck decades ago. I do not like this album Sam-I-Am.

A collection of nonsense

Malisímo álbum.

A messy album. The singles are catchy but the rest sounds like various streams of consciousness which were handed over to the Dust Brothers to make something of. I struggle to find a thread or story holding this all together. It all feels like it's trying too hard to be 'quirky', and ends up more wack than wacky.

The slacker feel sounds tedious. I felt like I was transported back to a crappy early 90's bar. How the chuffers did this break through to the mainstream? Gawd, it's shit.

Meh, don't care for Beck

I remember finding this album intensely annoying when it came out. There are a handful of good tracks surrounded by annoying crap. Alas, my opinion is unchanged after this listening.

Beck weet bijna elk nummer te verpesten met irritante piepjes, wegdraaiende geluiden etc.

Bunch of garbage

Never been a Beck fan.

beeeeeeeeeee

Ja wat moeten we hiermee… weer niet heel best

Don`t like it, pretty boring, some good elements in some songs but that's it.

1 Nonsense and noise. All overlayed on top of the same goddamn drum track. It doesn’t help that I already thought Beck was boring and a borderline plagiarist. Devil’s Haircut is only cool because of Dude, Where’s My Car and Where It’s At is a bop. Short of that I can’t figure who this is supposed to be for?

Boring, uninspired, at times stupid, Beck sounded uninterested throughout the entire album. Add onto that the occasional loud screaming and screechy instrumentals, and it all makes for an unpleasant listen. I don't hate Beck's other works, but I absolutely hated this album, and while I can normally understand why an album I didn't like received critical acclaim, I can't with this album.

Best Song: Where It's At. Succeeds (partly) in instilling the chill vibe that I think the rest of the album is striving towards. Worst Song: High 5 (Rock the Catskills). Unironically sounds like a Kid Rock song. Overall: Slow and monotonous droning that absolutely is not for me.

really bad 1.5

The cover is the only good thing about this duff garbage are you deliberately swnding me the most unlistenable sludge

bruh

Utter shite

Des bouts de musiques à peu près sympa, et des bruits de parquets mal graissés... J'ai pas fini l'album.

Didn't really enjoy this....

Not a big fan

Fun fact, Beck describes himself as both Jewish and a Scientologist. Second fun fact, I learned that I really dislike this album. Sounds like noise.

neeeej

This was not for me I didn’t like it at all 3/10

Ubehaglig å høre på. Liker ikke
