dreamover Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 After 3-4 relaxed listens, this record is really starting to grow on me. It's beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parker Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 It's certainly an "in the mood" record, but when you're in that mood, it hits hard. The production is also incredibly (sometimes deceptively) lush, even more so than on Sea Change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moglog Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Mine just showed up in the world's largest box (in great condition though!). I don't really get people who are complaining that he's "playing it safe" here for making an album that sounds similar to one he did twelve years ago. And shit, if anyone has EARNED playing it safe once in a while, it's Beck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidamnesiac Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 My feelings on Beck current events: Morning Phase is almost as good (IMO) as its "spiritual predecessor" Sea Change, my favorite Beck album. That's awesome. He's putting out another (probably more "risky") album (hopefully) this year. That's awesome. The standalone singles he put out last year? Awesome. I'm okay with this level and quality of output. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainaldous Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Just picked this up along with a 5 dollar copy of Sea Change. I can't wait to spin it tomorrow, since I won't have time to do it tonight. EDIT: $5 for a Sea Change cd, not on vinyl. That would be incredible.

LightningSpike Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Preordered this on vinyl from amazon, decided to cancel it after listening to the npr stream, got an email last night from amazon with a download for Morning Phase... Downloaded and will give it a second chance tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aju2streets Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 So its only a single LP, non gatefold? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaine Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 So its only a single LP, non gatefold? That's correct. It's pressed on 180g black vinyl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aju2streets Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 That's correct. It's pressed on 180g black vinyl. Thanks, is there an insert or anything. I'm trying to justify paying $24 for it, seems overpriced Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kidamnesiac Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 I would be shocked if this went out of print any time soon. As a reference, I saw vinyl copies of Sea Change on shelves well in to 2010. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webdoggy Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Listened through it twice last night. Might be my favorite Beck album. Definitely remniscent of Sea Change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyfranciosa Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 still can't warm up to this. vinyl sounds good, but I loved the singles he released last year so much more (especially I Won't Be Long). probably my fault for listening to too much Mellow Gold and Mutations lately.

kidamnesiac Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Word on the street is that the download that comes with the vinyl is a needledrop similar to what they did with Modern Guilt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
