  • Summary: Beck's "official" follow-up to 'Odelay' is an even more eclectic mix of soul, electro, funk, folk, rock, and hip-hop, including more than one song that sounds an awful lot like Prince.
Score distribution:
  1. Positive: 16 out of 19
  2. Negative: 0 out of 19
  1. 100
    Beck's best when he's tweaking music he has a genuine interest in, giving new humor and affection to his nasty grooves.
  2. He's given us the year's most relentless gas--laughing or otherwise--of a party album.
  3. Midnite Vultues kind of sounds like an album Prince would have made if he were more interested in being a geek than carressing his own ego.
