BECK...Do it yourself!
Beck’s new album, "The Information", has do-it-yourself cover art where owners can decorate the cover with stickers that come with the CD. Also, people can go to the Beck website and upload the their designs for the chance to have them included in the album cover sticker set for the second pressing. In an interview in Wired Magazine, they ask Beck, "Isn't all that repackaging just about making ways to sell more product?" Beck answers:
"I guess that's part of it, but for me it's more about giving the music legs, giving people new ways to experience it. There are so many ways to integrate technology into music; I can't wait to see how the opportunities end up being put to use."

Well I hate to say it but I have only started listening to Beck in the last couple years. His 05 album “Guero” was recommended by a friend and DAMN!!! That was a good album. So when his latest album “The Information” came out I was more than eager to give it a listen.
ITS GOOD!!.....hahaha Like there was a question that it would not be. The man is talented and as with his last album "The Information" is full of refreshing changes, sounds, and grooves. So far it has not hit my as hard a “Guero” did but I'm still digging it.
BOTTOM LINE: If you Dig Beck…get it! If you liked “Guero”….get it! If you have not listened to beck…get “Guero”…then get it!
