Listen to Beck's New Song "Defriended"



June 4, 2013
Link



Five years after 2008's Modern Guilt, Beck is finally back with new, original recorded material.

His new spaced-out electro ballad, "Defriended," leaked a few days ago, and an official version just hit the web. And he's not stopping there: a music industry source close to Beck reveals he is working on two new albums – a previously announced acoustic album, plus another album that the source describes as the proper follow-up to Modern Guilt.

"Defriended" won't appear on either album. Fans can expect at least one more standalone single this summer, ahead of the albums.

After years on Universal Music, Beck will release both albums independently.

τὸ τέλος ὁ χρόνος ἀπαιτεῖ.”

Heard this and was rather unimpressed... Was really hoping after the long wait that he'd come out with something a bit more inspiring
The greatest live performer of our times was is and always will be Prince.

All of it. Everything. Is U.

he recently released the one off single:

.

"I just started hating some people today" / "Blue Randy"

.

i like that one more. especially Blue Randy is one of the

best tracks ever.

.

this new one is cool enough. it's just a promo thing he's

releasing to get people talking about him again and get

some hype going for his 2 albums to be released later.

.

but i like it a lot. i like the diversity in beck. he's kind of

what prince used to be to me, someone who could just

release anything basically, and it would always be great

and well thought out with cool lyrics and shit.

woot!

and true love lives on lollipops and crisps

You said it. I love that 20 years later, Beck is still going strong.

No confusion, no tears. No enemies, no fear. No sorrow, no pain. No ball, no chain.

Sex is not love. Love is not sex. Putting words in other people's mouths will only get you elected.

Need more sleep than coke or methamphetamine.
