Free Music Notes for Mellow Gold
Free Music Review: Quirky Alternative and Imaginative Alternative Rock
Hit: 5 Stars
When I first heard about Beck I was definitely interested. He came out in the early-mid '90's, when alternative/indie/underground music started becoming more mainstream. Beck was a quirky imaginative artist. He would show up to his gigs in hometown L.A. with indian feathers on his head and a cheap small boombox. He became known with the release of his hit single off Mellow Gold called "Loser". "Loser" became an anthem type of song with rock fans singing it everywhere. Its chorus was catchy and entertaining with "I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me". The fun song was even nominated for a Grammy in 1995.
Mellow Gold also contains "Pay No Mind", a more hippy mellow rock song, with Beck's interesting funny lyrics and vocals. Then there is "Whiskeyclone, Hotel City 1997", which is the most bluesy Beck gets. While the music is sorta bluesy, Beck's vocals aren't -- they are pretty much monotone -- but the guitars are slow and methodical. "Soul Suckin Jerk" is filled with odd noises, funny lyrics that are hard to decipher at a lot of times and Beck's vocals in a more "rappin'" style. Overall if you like odd, quirky alternative and imaginative alternative rock music then you'll love Mellow Gold.
Mellow Gold Poster
Far more than a novelty jester, Beck is a musical anarchist and bummed-out street prophet whose audience will squirm and thrill to the slacker delta blues of "Whiskeyclone" and urban nightmares like "Truckdrivin Neighbors Downstairs." --Jeff BatemanAlternative Rock Music CDs
