Beck - Modern Guilt - Stereogum Premature Evaluation

Stereogum recently posted their "premature evaluation" of Beck's eighth full length release - Modern Guilt. I think their evaluation is spot on:

Modern Guilt is not all perfect, and it doesn't always match the crazy goodness of the advance song streams, but it's given us the first Beck album since 2002's Sea Change that we're digging almost from start to finish. And it's given us instant classic Beck turns via that grand slam, opening four track sequence. The fact that Beck can still parallel his highest moments eight LPs in as strong a testament to his enduring genius that we could ask for. With that we're putting "Gamma Ray" on the Happy-Birthday-America BBQ playlist. You should, too.

Here is a brief trailer for the album:
