AndyAug 20, 2006The most disappointing Beck album yet.

nashaqFeb 4, 2009No way as good as Sea Change. Three good songs and the rest some awful hip pop.

VenusSJun 21, 2005It was just Okay for me dog! A little pitchy in the beginning songs, but you pulled it out at the end, dog. Seriously though, it pains me to say that this album is OK. Its not going to set the world on fire like Sea Change, but can Beck really do anything bad?

JeffEApr 18, 2005A sad effort from a once prolific songwriter. A few nice parts scattered around but the majority of it sounds like a train wreck of Odelay/Midnight Vultures b-sides mixed with an assortment of tame borderline adult contemporary waste. Growing up is hard to do.

AlexKApr 25, 2005Considered what a great artist Beck once was, the lack of originality makes this album just an experience of disappointment.

The New York TimesWhere his previous albums have seesawed between comedy and despair, "Guero" comes closer than ever to merging them. [21 Mar 2005]

While it lacks the churn or drama of his earlier work or the dour intensity of Sea Change, it’s an album remarkable in its consistent, pleasant above-averageness, punctuated by bursts of true genius.

Too often tracks drag us down below the high standard an artist like Beck Hanson has set himself. Red Hot Chili Peppers outtakes with some harmonica and vocoder balanced incongruously on top are frankly not good enough.
