INFO: Beck is an american singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist from California, US. He grew up in a time when folk and hip-hop was on the rise. In his 20s he moved to New York and joined the Anti-folk subculture, which you can easily hear traces of in his earliest albums. He rose to fame during the 90s, and has ever since then kept a sturdy growth as an artist.
No man, Midnite Voltures is a masterpiece. Absolute masterpiece.
I'm glad you think so :)
I don’t know about you bruh but I was 20 when that album came out… at the risk of being crude I got sooo much ass to this record.
oK I guess that Midnite Vultures is badly commented in the video. Tommy I'm glad to find a partner in my absolute love for that album. That album is not only a masterpiece for me but the influence and the impact that it had is huge. It litteraly changed my life. There is no one in the world who can compete with me when it comes to importance of an album. For me that guy was the guy from the song looser" . I heard it for the first time at a party on muschroom. It did a hell of an impression on me and my friend. The next day I was downloading it on kazza I guess or morpheus. Putting it in the wrong order on a virgin cd. We smoked a join in my car listinging it at top volume. The way that I discovered the album and the artist (beck) is a little bit out of the ordinary. I guess that my favorite album of all time is the beatles white album but the most important album is BECK MIDNITE VULTURES. Dont forget the song midnite vultures and also salt in the wound that you can add to the album. Ok I will listen to charlotte Gainsbour Le collectiommeur ciao!
The Information is a massively underrated album. It’s amazing
Beck is the definition of a musician's musician
I definitely agreed on that. Like a guru of all the other experimental artists out there.
I really hope you guys dig this discography doc :) I spent quite a few days making it and
it was a lot of fun! Wish you all a great weekend!
Lie Likes Music good video, but you forgot Song Reader, you skipped from Modern Guilt to Morning Phase.
I dig it!
Also, one foot in the grave.
do a video on Mike patton pls. He was in mr. bungle, tomahawk, faith no more, fantomas, general patton, and hes done some solo stuff as well as collabs with chino moreno and sepultura
Beck makes what ever musicnhe wants to make and that's what makes him so great. In a saturated industry, he doesnt make music to keep with the times.
no "One foot in the grave'?
Geez, seeing that makes me not want to watch the video! That's my favorite album!
One foot is one of his best albums, his style is defined on it....
Beck is my all-time favorite artist, so I appreciate this in-depth look into his career! I can tell lots of work and research went into this.
I can't tell you how happy I was to find this video! Every result for 'Beck album review' was for Colors or Morning Phase and I really wanted to hear more about his earlier stuff as well as the less popular stuff. I love the style of this video and will definitely be coming back for more. Thank you for the grade A content!
Grace Jacobs I'm so glad you found it usefull 😊 And also thank you for watching and subscribing, it means a lot. Also do you have spotify? In that case, maybe you can add some music you like to listen to into this list? open.spotify.com/user/lielikesmusic/playlist/0U0QkV4uHzBHTfj7kJcSs0?si=0rn01OXg
I'm a big Beck fan right now,the hyperspace album dropped a few months back and it's great,very very good,I'm so happy that there's an artist out there still going that I like their music,I searched for a band to get into for along time, finally found beck again.I had mellow gold and loved loser like everybody else, and whiskeyclone hotel and all the hits off of it,then for me beck kind of fell by the wayside I thought but now 20 years later I can look through his whole repertoire and he is a big-time artist, better in my eyes than Bowie ever dreamed of being. Beck is like Johnny Cash hes a class all his own
I loved Colors.
Super fun album. Modern pop done right.
Yeeeeeeh. It was alright... I liked Wow xD
Lie Likes Music picky picky.
It's the type of album that gets better the more times you listen.
up all night is an awful song, but otherwise i completely agree.
Beck's approach to songwriting, recording, and performance is a masterclass. An all-time creative favorite
The Information and Modern Guilt grew on me more and more with every listen. To this day I still go back and listen to tracks like Landslide, Replica, Chemtrails and Profanity Prayers.
mellow gold was amazing.
14:48 not like theres a massive explosion at the end of the information, plunging into to the beautiful electronic noisefolk that is movie theme, then going into a dissonant eerie soundscape (The Horrible Fanfare), then interrupted by the classic electric guitar and piano approach (Landslide), before traveling into space with a synth sounding like the universe is whispering to you, and then beck's own son is actually whispering to you, and the 10 minute 3 in 1 song ends at the beginning, coming back with the Horrible Fanfare vibe. Totally not any "surprising moments" that he claims aren't in The Information.
Hahaha! Dude, you hitting those Midnite Vultures tracks with the mic is EXACTLY me every time I play that album!! LOVE it!!!
GivesAMinute You gotta try to hit those notes 😂 It's the perfect song to sing in the car though! 🚗 never fails to get me in a good mood!
Totally! In the bathroom with the extra reverb sounds perfect for me. Hahaha! Hey, I think you mentioned it once before but where can we hear your music you've created?
I don't have that music anymore. Recorded 2 songs with my band and they're still on my friend's laptop.
Beck is, in my opinion, one of the most talented, creative and brilliant musicians of the 21st century. He consciously changes his sound completely with every album, and generally succeeds. His music is fresh and new and “genre-bending”, and basically what the music industry needs these days, not to sound like an old timer.
I love his music; his lyrics are very unique and generally multi-faceted. And don’t even get me started on his acoustic albums, they’re phenomenal and really show his softer side (Sea Change is one of my favourite albums, very direct and melancholy, it certainly affects me emotionally). He’s just brilliant, and certainly never boring. I aspire to be as creative as Beck in terms of songwriting.
Hi there! Great video, keep on making this stuff. Though for me it would be even more interesting to point out the differences between his "acoustic trilogy" Mutations, Sea Change and Morning Phase, being the first from 1998 and the last from 2014. Musically they seem to draw from the same inspiration, but eventually you can hear Beck aging very nicely! Mutations, for me, feels now more of a pure musical experiment in psychedelia and acoustics. Sea Change seems 80 procent driven by pure sadness and is very personal. It also is the first of the three WITH orchestral contributions from Becks father, David Campbell. The last one, Morning Phase, for me seems the most accomplished one, but that's personal. His voice sounds the best at this (st)age! How will he sound when he's 60? Probably damn good!
Yes finally :D Great mini documentary and I think Mellow Gold is on Spotify, listened to it many times there.
Fejrus887 Thank you! 😊 Nope i still can't find Mellow Gold... Any other band you'd like me to do a documentary about?
Lie Likes Music Holy shit you're right, but I could swear that album was in my album list a few weeks ago, but whatever I guess xd A Muse documentary would be pretty neat ^^
Fejrus887 Muse, MGTM, Amplifier, i'm getting a lot of different requests for album documentaries. It's more likely that i'll do one about Muse though. I'm already very familiar with their albums 😊 Thank you for suggesting it!
Lie Likes Music Looking forward to it :D
I just discovered your channel and was thinking to myself "HE NEEDS TO DO BECK!". But i scrolled down far enough and BOOM, 20 minute video about him!!! Lol. He is my favorite artist of all time with exceptions like Beatles. His bipolar tendencies in his album structure and sound is why I love him so much lol. "The Information" is maybe my favorite album. What you may not like about Beck's albums and song WILL grow on you in time,,, believe me i understand how and why many don't care for a lot of the aspects of his music, give it time. For some reason I did. I kept going back and trying it all on again at different times, and in time my love and appreciation followed lol. I was very young when he hit the scene but have rediscovered him these last 3 years. I feel like he is me (or I am him) in a musically creative standpoint, from the humorous Golden Feelings to Neil Young style of Sea Change and Morning Phase. I love it all. The fact that he's NOT over popular is what makes it even more special to me,, yet,, I wish people appreciated him more lol. Double edge sword there I guess.🤪. I realize this is an older video now,,, but YES, YES, YES, do a fuller documentary on this great man!!!! 👍👍👍
Haha glad you took the time to scroll down. I'm planning to make another one about Beck in a newer format soon.
Maybe i'll focus on only one of his albums. Or a certain facet of his career or music. The Information is one of the Beck
albums i never really understood. I LOVE Odelay, Midnite Vultures, Sea Change, Guero, Modern Guilt and Morning Phase.
But The Information... meh.. Hopefully this album will grow on me as well, like you said. Thanks for resonating! Cheers
from Norway.
Yeah! That'd be awesome if you made a video or two about certain albums etc. I'm sure what ever you do will be a fun watch 👍. It's hard to beat Odelay and Morning Phase. I too love how Morning Phase flows and the trip it takes you through, that's why on Saturday mornings it's my favorite thing to listen to while i drink my coffee and decompress from the stressful week lol. Anyway, love your videos, so glad I found your channel 😁
I had realised I had forgot to mention that on the Information album, every song has a music video to go along with it that you watch if you buy the special edition that has the DVD, or just RUclips them. That is a big part of the enjoyment for me sometimes because they are silly but rather entertaining lol. ALSO, you should check out the 3 bonus tracks & songs only found on the Japanese versions (*Inside Out, This Girl That I Know, and O Menina*) , GREAT SONGS! ,, I have purchased a few of these versions, for myself and people I know might appreciate them lol. You can find them on Ebay. Anyway, wanted to throw that nugget of insight out there too if you were at all interested in looking into those parts of that album 👍
Beck is easily one of my top 5 favorite musicians of all time. Thank you so much for making this documentary.
RhythmGrizz Ah maan same here. Been a huge fan of him for a long time. What other bands/artists do you like?
Lie Likes Music I'm flattered that you'd ask!
I think you would really be able to get into the music of Eels, Sparklehorse, and Tom Waits.
They have all had prolific, impactful careers in music and the individuals behind the groups have lead extremely interesting lives that I think would be amazing for your great documentaries.
Thanks for the ideas! I'll note them down right away. I'm busy creating a new video about King Gizzard,
but after that one i might consider one of those artists. Have a great day.
@@LieLikesMusic Would love to see a video about "Haunted" by Poe. Probably one of - if not the best album ever made.
Thanks for this video, well explained and detailed on each album. I love his music, he's just a genius but I kinda have that same feeling with Guero and The Information after many plays. Some great songs but it's difficult to listen full in a row. Maybe the tracklist is made that way on purpouse to capture that acoustic-experimental universe you talk about. And somehow Modern Guilt was love at first listen, even if it has a dark vibe but nowdays I choose other albums from his discography more tbh. Aaanyway, deliver those high notes lol and hopefully he replies to that question
The guy is definitely a genius. Makes me curious about his father's music. He composed music
for films if i remember right. Modern Guilt has become better with time for me! Now i think it's
one of his best albums. So classic. "And you're sister, i think her name was Debrah oh oooooooh!!!"
Great video btw man! How the hell did you hit those notes at 7:18 haha
Ed Bate Practice my friend. . . Practice hahah. I dunno. But thank you for watching. Is there anything that could've made this dicography guide better?
Yes
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes
Lie Likes Music - I think it's cool that you actually read and respond to your comments. That's not too common on RUclips these days. Keep it up with the great videos, it's all really good stuff.
Mellow Gold is on youtube though
I just found your channel. I'm not quite sure how. It was just featured on the RUclips homepage for me. I quite enjoyed the video and I've actually watched a few of them. Needless to say I've subscribed and liked the videos so far. I'm wondering if you'll ever do a video of Modest Mouse.
Thanks for subscribing my friend! And yes my videos sometimes pop up there which is still incredible to me.
Modest Mouse? Yeah i might do one. But i have to get more familiar with them first
Lie Likes Music Absolutely! Thank you for the great content.
With all of the videos of your covering of rock music, I think you might find you'll like Modest Mouse. I heard one song of theirs a few years ago and decided to go through their discography and there's not much of their music that I can't bear to listen to.
Just as a suggestion, and i probably should write this under a newer video, but I'd love it if you could create playlists on spotify for these documentaries so that you can imagine better and more vivid what you're emphasizing bout the songs.
... But of course you also can just scroll through the albums and do it on your own. Anyways, keep doing this stuff, i love it :)
Hey that's a great idea! Maybe i'll start using it in a different project :)
Thank you for sharing.
To be fair, after Broken Drum the album goes for a more slower sad vibe so I think it’s the transition of the album
I like basically everything he's done, Mellow Gold, Odelay, Sea Change and Morning Phase are my personal favorites
you really should listen to Steal my body home from mellow gold album
I can't believe they didn't mention "One foot in the grave" release. Beck is nothing like Nirvana and "Pay No Mind" is nothing like any Nirvana song! However I do love that song.........the ridiculousness of the lyrics takes you back (but it's brilliant, I'm thinking this is what he thinks of LA.....sewers over flowing, giant daffodils(sp!), mutated insects and morgues that are full. I like the mellow Beck that did songs like "Blackhole" and "Nobodys fault but my own". Mutations will always be a special album to me, I had just moved for school and when I hear that I remember things. "Nightmare Hippy Girl" is one of the funniest songs ever "made up" and have always wondered who he had met to give him the compulsion for lyrics about a self indulged clove smoking girl......because I had met one just like the girl described in the song in my youth. In this generation she's the one at the mall wearing all pink w a shirt that says "Blessed", heavy eyeliner walking against traffic vaping at every chance with eyes glued to an $800 dollar phone that's as big as her face!
Oh man broken drum is so good. Its so airy and feel-ey
Sure is. He's got plenty of fantastic songs though.
Midnight Vultures has always been my favorite of his! lol I think it’s his best album! ❤️💜
1:00 what song is that
yes
I'm definitely one of his more experimental fans considerin I think Guero's his best album.
If you were to do an MGMT discog doc in anticipation of their new album I would definitely love to make a little appearance a-la your Killers doc. I've recently become obsessed with 'Congratulations' so I have a lot to talk about with regards to them.
Dude that is a great idea! There are so many things i could potentially review, so i might forget about them.
If i do, would you mind reminding me a week or two before they release the album? I probably will remember
since MGTM is quite a big deal, but just in case :O
Lie Likes Music The album doesn't have a release date yet, I have a feeling it'll be out early 2018 but I'd be happy to be proven wrong. I'll remind you though^^
Ed Bate Okay. Thank you. 'm looking forward to it 👍
YES PLEASE!!!
Yes!
Yes.
Mellow Gold is available on Spotify Mexico! Perhaps elsewhere too? (Cool video BTW)
Karen Gomez Hopefully here in Norway soon! Haven't heard it in a while. This is why i should expand my lp and cd collection.
YES
MIDNIGHT VULUTURES - PRINCE GOES DADA..
Lovin' the channel
Plankton Theory Lovin' your comment. Thank you for watching.
YES!
Sea Change was my favourite album by Beck. Don't blame Rolling Stone for putting on such a pedestal. The 2nd favourite for me would be Mutations. That's not to say that I don't enjoy Beck's experimental side. I loved Midnite Vultures. Beautiful Way was actually my favourite song on that record. I do agree with you about Guero and The Information, the latter of which is my least favourite studio album of Beck's. I loved Morning Phase and Colors too. Odelay was really enjoyable too but I wouldn't say it's his best, at least not for me
My experience of Beck's discography is varied as well. Some is good, some is fantastic. I think i'll
always come back to his music though, because he dared to be different than everyone else. That's
what made him so memorable and outstanding. Damn, i gotta make a video essay about Beck!
Hi C, loved to watch this documentary, found the footage from the 1994 interview with TR and it starts with "Loser" from Beck. my guess is the guy who made the interview, became a Beck fan, well you have to see it. Working on it now! To be honest I did not listen to all Beck's records, but I will check out the album with Broken Drum on it, ha,ha! Morning face is a nice one, got that one. Thanks for all this information, you rock! I would like to see a Amplifier documentary !! They have a gig in the Netherlands next year at the end of June....when I'm in the USA ...shit happens.....
Jacqueline Diesel It's Morning Phase 😅 Why did you wanna check out the "Broken drum" one? And yes feel free to show me the interview once it's done. It would be fascinating to have Todd and Beck work on something together. They both have very eclectic tastes in music production so maybe it would be a good match.
They are not together in this interview, but the reporter did two interviews, one with TR and later one with Beck. Oops, and yeah it's Morning Phase, Tx. I want to check out broken drum , maybe to understand why he
put it there 😜
Jacqueline Diesel Hahah 😂 That cleared up a few things. Well i would love to watch the interview anyway. Are you going to post it on facebook?
Yes, it is still on harddisk, I'll post it tonight on FB !
That King X song you introduced me to, it was quite nice. Very psychedelic and heavy.
Have you listened to them a lot?
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Do one on mike Patton, mike is everything, mike is god.
yes.
Aight
this video was good but i wish you didn't skip over the songs he wrote for the movie scott pilgrim
Art is not a competitive sport. Great job on having seen beyond the inherent value
why not add some samples of the songs u are talking about??
Yes. Also like to add, like your videos except the white noise in your mic, fuzzy background
Broken drum is like a intermission
I have skipped the first few tracks to get to the later ones on midnight vultures I thought the album gained steam
You really think the later ones were the better? Hmm. It's the exact
opposite for me. Great album nonetheless!
One of my favorite Beck tunes is his cover of Halo of Gold, which appeared on the Stray Blues B-Sides compilation.
ruclips.net/video/_WfjPtVQl_Y/видео.html
Great sounds.
What about the "one foot in the grave"? That is his first album not mellow gold.
Hollywood freaks is his best sing
Mellow Gold is such a good, crazy and iconic album is shocking to me it seeng it ranking so low in all internet Beck's album lists. Midnite Vultures is so good also and so fun but can't touch Mellow Gold. I like Odelay too very much and Guero a little bit. I realy dont care for acoustic /country or folk/emotional Beck's albums. Only Mutations is kind of interesting, some parts of it.
Don’t agree with midnite vultures 2nd half. I think it’s fire all the way through.
Apparently I'm 2 years behind everybody everytime I come to the comments sections.........weird.
Discography: starts by skipping incredible albums. 🚽
BEASTIE BOYS - check yo spelling
Paul McCartney's Solo Career! 70's to now
How many albums is that?
17 official ones I believe! I'd say from 1970 to now
Did you actually insult Milk and Honey?
Yes
Lie Likes Music bastard
yeS
"The Normie Guide to Beck." You missed the roots of the man that made him so absurdist and yet relatable. Fume, Stereopathic, One Foot...these are where you go to understand Beck. The other albums are solid but really side effects of his core. Normal normie normington
Group Hug if you even want to talk beck you gotta go to that depth. Any love for the beer can ep? How great is "got no mind?" Not enough people even know about "megaboob"!
am i the only one that thinks this dude sort of just states the obvious in these videos honestly if you go read an artisits wikipedia your gonna get pretty much the same info not really a point to a video essay that regurgitates common place information
Yes there is. An article is not the same as a video. My point being that a lot of people
prefer to watch a video than reading an article. Or what do you think?
Beck’s gender is Beck
This would be cool if this dude understood the slightest thing about Beck’s music.
A ton of songs on sea change sound the same. Prove me wrong
This discography skipped over so many important details, this film is pretty weak.
Very well done, but the word "guero" is a spanish word and you don't pronounce it with the "G"...
im a white boy from san diego, so ive heard this one haha
Hola, soy hispanohablante. Hi, I speak Spanish. I'm going to break it down for you and explain it briefly. The problem here is: the album title is erroneously written. Beck spells it "Guero", which is pronounced like a G (gas, get go, guts). The right way to spell it is "Güero", which is pronounced like a W (white, well, wall). So, it is actually pronounced Wero on this side of Earth, but the album can be pronounced as Gero.
Dude said ‘Beasty’ Boys. I’m out, do not recommend channel.
