They're better as Sex Bob-Omb.
Modern Guilt is hellava good album! Underrated.
90's Beck is a bit overrated, but 00's Beck is quite underrated. The Information is a great album and Modern Guilt's Chemtrails is one the best songs he's ever written.
Beck is extremely overrated except when it comes to Sea Change. Odelay is vastly overrated by everyone. Loser is his best song.
You guys should listen to The Information and Modern Guilt. Both albums are great. This is of course in addition to all the stuff he did earlier.
In addition to listening to the whole album, one has to listen to it a couple of times.
Sorry most you guys are serious poser music connoisseurs. Lazy f**ks!
Hard to say. Was probably overrated at one point, probably underrated now. Some of the stuff he does is just great. His voice gets old to me after awhile though. He should incorporate more guest artists to mix it up.
he's good, but he's just not the great amazing musical jesus that everyone makes him out to be.
He sounds like Radiohead would sound in like 2050 or something.
Consistantly changing his image and music, and always being great.
"Mellow Gold" and "Midnite Vulture" are both stone cold classics. The rest of his stuff I can take or leave (and he's not even remotely Dylanesque), but he deserves a place in the Pantheon for those albums alone.
Beck is great, Everyone knows that song Where it's At and has sung along to it at one point in their life. In no way shape or form are they over rated.
Mellow Gold and Odelay are decent but his new stuff is very BLAND.
He's a great musician, and his samplimg is some of the best
Beck has range. His singles don't show off what he's capable of.
I think Beck doesn't get much airplay because he's not that entertaining. His music is filled with loops and talentless writing. So I think it is fair that he doesn't get that much radio airplay. However, he shouldn't even be allowed to make another album. Stop wasting the world's plastic!
Beck doesnt really gain too much popularity. Its hard to say hes overrated.
Totally overrated. Nothing more annoying than a white guy who thinks he's funky. Just horrible.
Beck is an amazingly talented guy who never lived up to his potential. The controversial hit single 'Loser' brought him public attention, and his follow up, and admittedly genius, album 'Odelay brought him to the forefront of pop culture as the future of music. Unfortunately his inventiveness, if anything, backslid from that point on, and he has been stuck in a watered down version of 1996 ever since. He could have been legendary.
Beck has zero songwriting and music composition skills. The reason why he's so well liked is that he: 1) is an extremely likable, cute, and cuddly hipster and 2) he has a great producer who wraps all of his tuneless melodies with beautiful loops and ambience.So Beck is overrated, but his producers are underrated.
I've never understood what the hype is all about with this guy. Overrated, to be sure. He sure doesn't deserve the raves he's received with songs that are exceedingly average at best.
I think Beck is talented and interesting, but he's not the musical savior many make him out to be.
As good as Sea Change is, Beck's "genius" has shown only in flashes - Mellow Gold, Odelay, Mutations. Everything else is solid to very good but certainly not the work of our generation's Dylan as some have called him.
i agree entirely with awerty
For some reason, everyone i know wants to take beck up the ass because they think he's a genius, i listened to a couple of his songs, and found nothing special about his music. it's very bland, and it seems as though he is trying too hard to make a new style by fusing different genres, but fails miserably.
how could anyone say beck is overrated! who ever makes a big deal about Beck??
He's good, but his talents haven't really turned into much, especially not lately.
