Beck, "Sea Change"

from So So / Cool Hosted by So So / Cool

Put your hands on the wheel, and let the weight of the world drift away, because this week we discuss Beck's 2002 album “Sea Change”. This record, a major departure from Beck’s previous work, features sparse and expressive songwriting juxtaposed with dreamlike string arrangements and production flourishes. The songs explore feelings of heartbreak, desolation, and solitude, creating a palpable sense of melancholy throughout most of the record. Matt and Joe—both experienced “sad boys”—share their nostalgic connection to this music, while Brandon wonders how many sad slow songs you can put on one record. Listen along to find out and stick around to hear compelling John Fogerty impressions and references to some previously unreleased So So / Cool content. Let the Golden Age begin! Be sure to support the artists by purchasing "Sea Change" on iTunes or wherever you get your music.
