Brothers, and the sound captured distinguishes
this as the spiritual follow-up toOdelay.Guerois a
lovingly crafted soundscape with few lulls and
many peaks. High points include the opening
one-two of "E-Pro" and "Guero", both of which are
insidiously catchy and smartly humorous; "Black
Tambourine", which sounds like a miniature
reinvention of the Stone Roses' classic "Fools
Gold"; "Hell Yes", in which Beck, armed with
vocoder, returns as a great wielder of irony,
taking potshots at hedonism; and the dustbowl
rootsy blues of "Scarecrow" and "Farewell Ride",
adverts for the neglected genre that are strong
enough to make a next generation pick up
harmonicas and slip on cowboy boots.As
withOdelay,Guero's instrumentation and sonic
textures are always changing. Everything is
here--from string sections, celeste and organ
(courtesy of guest keyboardist Money Mark) through
12-string and slide guitars, bass from Jack White,
a good dose of colourful samples, and programmed
blips and bleeps that recallMidnite Vultures' best
moments.Beck is a true master of pastiche,
butGueroisn't eclectic merely for the sake of
it--instead, it's a constantly surprising,
ever-revolving creation that looks at Beck's
multiple talents through an entertaining
kaleidoscope and which, backed by the Dust
Brothers' formidable production, is damn groovy.
In sum,Guerois what Beck's admirers have waited so
long to hear: "Odelay 2". Where Beck will go from
here is anyone's guess.--Jonathan Davies

This review is being rewritten at the moment, and will reappear when I'm happy with it. I'm currently rewriting all of my old reviews to make them better and more in line with 'proper' reviews like you see on the liks of Pitchfork or Stylus, and naturally that's going to take a bit of work. Sorry for being massively inconvinient, but that's just how I roll, folks! I'll try to rewrite this review as quickly as possible, but for the moment I've written a basic guide to the album below which should hopefully serve as a place holder until my glorious full and proper review is created.

This is a decent album, with some great tracks like "E-Pro", "Girl" and "Scarecrow", but an awful lot of filler as well.

Beck-oning you with another great release
Review of Guero (Limited Edition) - Beck by self_aggressive

Advantages: Dutch thinking from the Beck-man
Disadvantages: Some of the tracks sound a bit to Hiphop for me..

Opening with E-pro, you instantly know this is going to be another quality release. Beck is in my opinion, one of the best musical artists, probably ever. He has his own style in my opinion. He uses the music well to get his lyrics across. The CD includes the singles: E-Pro Girl Hell Yeah Although I feel so many more of the songs could have being singles! This is probably Becks best album to date, and if you look over his music you can see ...
...I think Girl is my favourite song on the CD because it just seems like the perfect summer song. Although people may argue that a lot of his music is the same, and suchlike. I feel that every song has a little story behind it, even if it's something small... I would recommend this album to any Beck fan, and to anyone who likes Alternative music. Although it's not to many peoples tastes, I think Beck deserves a lot of respect, because it takes a ... Read review

Additional notes

Album Notes: This edition of Beck's acclaimed 2005 GUERO features two bonus tracks: "Send a Message to Her" (non-LP version) and "Chain Reaction" (non-LP version)
Beck's sixth major-label album is a stunning return to the anything-goes format of 1996's ODELAY. Standing in sharp contrast to its predecessor--the quiet, somber SEA CHANGE--2005's GUERO is the sound of the Los Angeles singer/songwriter cutting loose and getting back to the slacker funk that won him legions of fans in the 1990s.
"E-Pro" kicks off the festivities with a heavy guitar riff and a Beastie Boys-sampled beat, while "Que Onda Guero" revels in a sunny Latin vibe, with Beck rapping (surprisingly well) in Spanish. However, this outing also offers up MUTATIONS-worthy melodic pop, particularly on "Girl," a brilliantly catchy tune carried along by acoustic guitar, handclaps, and lush vocal harmonies. Beck's reunion with sound sculptors Mike Simpson and John King (the Dust Brothers) breathes plenty of life into these tracks, including the heavily percussive "Black Tambourine" and the '70s-inspired "Earthquake Weather." Jack White (of the famously bass-less White Stripes) lends a bluesy bass line to "Go It Alone," while many of Beck's longtime musicians (guitarist Smokey Hormel, bassist Justin Meldal-Johnsen) turn up throughout the record. An album that features Beck energetically jumping back into his renowned cut-and-paste aesthetic, GUERO is sure to please longtime fans, and may win over young listeners who thought that he was primarily a sad-sack folkie.

Album Reviews: Observer Music Monthly - "GUERO is an uncontrived, understated pleasure."
Esquire - "Beck's return to poppin' and lockin' good-time kid is welcome."
Rip n Burn - "...you'll find plenty to love here."
