New Beck Track, "Chemtrails"
Got this one courtesy of the good people at Nasty Little Man, and I find myself liking the song & wanting to hear it repeatedly, so I figured it was only just to post it to this here site. Sounds to me like “Chemtrails” is Beck finally making the full transformation from alt-rock hero into ’60s psych-rock icon — if this sounds like anything recent, it’s Spiritualized, albeit with more jazzy drums. I love the wild, live-wire-sounding guitars after the false fadeout, in particular; they come off like some long-lost gem from the vault of sadly-departed Robert Quine. Stuff like this almost makes me forget Beck’s a Scientologist. Enjoy…
