Beck Modern Guilt Album Details Announced

Beck has broken the silence regarding his new album 'Modern Guilt' and finally revealed the tracklisting.


The Danger Mouse produced record has ten songs - including 'Chem Trails' - a song which Beck recently aired on MySpace (it's still online here).


XL Recordings release the album on July 7th in the UK, July 8th in the US. The label says of Beck's new opus, "Modern Guilt is a tightly assembled group of songs that range in lyrical tone from introspection and social commentary to off the cuff wordplay and lighthearted humor."


"Musically, the album's ten tracks vacillate between economy and experimentation, hybrid and pop classicism, while consistently manifesting Beck and Danger Mouse's shared interest in psych-rock, folk, electronic minimalism and orchestration."


The Modern Guilt Tracklisting is:


Orphans

Gamma Ray

Chemtrails

Modern Guilt

Youthless

Walls

Replica

Soul of A Man

Profanity Prayers
