A track, entitled Chemtrails, from Beck's forthcoming Danger Mouse collaboration 'Modern Guilt' is now online and streaming from myspace.

Check it out here.

It's quite good, and not really what you'd expect.

(Actually, I had no idea what to expect, so I guess it sounds about right).

So Beck's 10th album has a name Modern Guilt and if you haven't heard already its Danger Mouse-produced and Cat Power-assisted (mmm interesting). The album will clock in at just over a half an hour and will feature 10 tracks, no full track listing yet but have heard it will feature the following songs: "Modern Guilt", "Beggars Shoes", "Chem Trails", and "Walls"(with "Walls" featuring Cat Power)
Heres what Danger Mouse had to say about the album

"is full of off-kilter rhythms and left-field breakdowns, with an overall 1960s British vibe. Beck's vocals float over the music as if he's singing along to some mystical radio station in the next room. The title track has the groove of a good Zombies single, while the twangy guitar and uptempo beat of "Beggars Shoes" make it sound like Beck's cruising at maximum speed down Route 66."

Theres no fixed releaes date for the album but sources say Beck's "likely to rush it out in June, much like the recent blitzkrieg of releases from Gnarls Barkley and the Raconteurs"

No you didn't read it incorrectly. This is not bullshit. We here at egoeccentric love you guys so much that we have bribed Universal music into letting us give away some of their stuff- and because the Deluxe edition of Beck's Odelay is out soon, we are doing precisely that.

Click here to enter or even click on the banner ad on the right hand side of the page. And if you've ever wanted to design your own version of the album cover or even watch the Devil's Haircut video then go to the ecard here for fun and frolics


If you haven't got your hands on any of these deluxe editions that are going around over the last few years then you'd be well advised to check some of them out. Other awesome editions include Jeff Buckley's Grace, The Who's Who's Next, Nine Inch Nails' The Downward Spiral and Sonic Youth's Dirty and Goo. All of which come with b-sides and other cool shit.

If you haven't heard and played Odelay to death at this stage then stop reading now and go and get listening because it is without doubt one of the seminal albums of the 90's.

You've got until the 14th or March to get to the link again (here in case you forgot to do it above) and enter or if you really can't wait that long then go to umusic tomorrow to download and pay for it. Which is what you should be doing anyway.

Here's a classic cut from the album in question. Where it's at:
