Either this or Modern Guilt are his worst

Sea Change is the worst for me because it was just regular mopey indie music and none of the quirk chungus we had come to expect from Beck. I give Midnight Vultures a pass because I really like the funk vibe.

>>128306610
i came to enjoy that one, and i didnt mind modern guilt but its definitely not a stand out record thats for sure

Hot Dog and South Bound Suarez are atrocious, like novelty-tier bad.
And that taints the whole album, but really the rest of it is pretty good.
I'd nominated Presence as their worst album.

>>128306252
>>128305343
is it just me or does anyone else think these two are just complete phonies?
- Wait's fake voice and hobo routine.
- Beck's calculated quirkiness (that you'd all would hate coming from a woman).

Tom Waits quirky phase came from his wife and copying Captain Beefhart coping for losing his good singing voice
Beck is a trust fund scientologist and all that goofball stuff went away starting with Sea Change. If you look into how much of his early popular stuff is sampling you will be shocked. https://youtu.be/TaHZnkZ-tyo

Absolutely terrible album cover from the guy that's known of his choice of album covers.
Most bland production on any of his albums.
Most generic music on any of his albums, it sounds like they actually removed any memorable guitar hook or cool bass line, when Southpaw Grammar had great ones and great production.
I actually think this was a conscious choice because it was the same producer on both, and on Southpaw Grammar, his band actually overshadowed him because his lyrics were so weak.
And finally, this is his worst collection of lyrics, most are boring, and a few are actually cringey.
This album was so bad and sold so bad, that he didn't record another for 7 years.

Music Of The Spheres by Coldplay is really quite astoundingly poor for an A-list artist, I'd go so far as to say Jacob Collier's shit is better

Critics praised it because of the Camarón reference in the title. Their first 4 albums are their only good ones anyway.

They write good songs and make good records. Nobody gives a shit about that other stuff.

my hot take: ADKoT is worse than Van Halen III

VH III was a terrible record but the spectacularly bad swing-and-miss stuff (like listening to Eddie croak out How Many Say I) is still better than the joyless cash grab reheated 70s leftovers on ADKoT

I second your motion to nominate Presence as bottom Zep.

In THrough the Out Door has some great songs on it, in particular All of My Love, which completely mogs Tears In Heaven for "I got a dead kid" songs.

midnite vultures is an amazing album, you just don't like fun. production is luxuriously immaculate. he has so much worse.

Fucking colours mogs all these albums in terms of being his worst album.

Sea change is like a perfect album and modern guilt is the most inoffensive obligatory stripped down album ever why are you all such finooks?
>>
>>128305343
The new albums suck harder. Besides, MV is not even the worst pre- Guero Beck album. I'd say Seachange is the most boring.

Beck was directly ripping off Elliott Smith on Sea Change. He went from party and comedy music, to devastated and somber folk music? Because he had a break up? Nah, Beck's a Scientologist with concubines. He's no loner lost in his feelings.

The truth is Beck's record label saw how big Elliott was with Figure 8 and XO, sensed the future of indie soft rock in the 2000s, and tried to capitalize on the sound really quickly with Sea Change. They pushed that album so hard. I like Beck, but Sea Change was a ruthless attempt to corner the indie folk market

bro, VHIII is eddie's creative rock bottom. he was a complete fucking mess health-wise. it was looking like the band was done for good after that album. yes, even reheated riffs from their musical prime are going to trounce that flaming shitheap. again, i cannot honestly see how someone is sincere with this opinion. unless like VHIII was the first VH album you ever owned and you played it to death or some shit.

>>128311181
This guy has never put out a good album.
Even hearing one Morrisey song once puts you well into homosexual territory on the (((Kinsey))) scale
