    Beck, what is the purpose of you still doing this... Music thing?
    I remember you meant stuff, but now, I don't understand where you're at.

    Really boring attempt to capitalize on a trendy new wave of nostalgia infused psych rock tracks. It's so blatantly trying to appeal to a very specific market of millennial listeners. It's so cheap and disingenuous, If Beck wanted to he could make an actually good album full of 80s synth wave throwbacks. But instead we get an extremely surface level take on the era it's trying to rip off,Really boring attempt to capitalize on a trendy new wave of nostalgia infused psych rock tracks.

    The sound of the otherworldly sci-fi R&B that's released when psych country singer-songwriter and a future-pop production legend bond at molecular level. [Jan 2019, p.86]

    Not all of the 11 tracks here strike gold, but they glitter and glow with positivity.

    Sometimes he hits pure signal, and sometimes it’s just background noise as he gets to wherever he’s going next.
