Summary: Hippy, Happy, Soulful
Comment: Beck for over a decade has made great, interesting alternative/rock albums. Guero is his sixth release and while you hear his maturity throughout it still has Beck's signature imagination. It has happy, hippy, soulful rock tunes that you'd expect from Beck. He has always been folk at times to pop to electronic to funk & disco to country and rap you would always get a wide range of styles in his music. So Guero isn't as outrageous as his previous release, but I think it's due to him just growing up and maturing. You can't be so juvenile forever can you?
The album opens with "E-Pro" a catchy and groovin' song with it's electronic vibe and Beck's patented rap/sing vocal style. It also contains "Girl", which has sloppy keyboards and breaks into a upper-paced folky sorta pop rock tune that you can dance to. "Rental Car" is one of my faves on Guero with it's upbeat/hip hop style with Beck's goofiness mixed in of course. Beck is an extremely talented and creative artist with the imagination to the sky so any music he puts out I always enjoy.

Summary: Step backwards, intentionally
Comment: A deliberate step backward, and a deliberate nod to the critical consensus that Odelay is his best work, Guero doesn't sound nearly as fresh as it needs to. Most of the songs sound like leftovers from Odelay, while "Broken Drum" seems left over from Sea Change. While there is something almost appealing in an iconoclast paddling to the middle of the road, this does not make the record good listening. While just flat derivitive, dull tracks ("E-Pro," "Scarecrow") alternate with a few nice moments (notably the funky, catchy "Girl") and some perfectly passable, almost interesting songs ("Earthquake Weather," "Black Tambourine,") the primary approach: sound collage, scratching, and grab-bag of styles has not only been done before, and better, but its been done before and better by Beck himself.

Summary: ebullient
Comment: if you like beck you'll love this--yes, it's similar to previous work but it's really good. he oozes talent.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Guero
Comment: Wow. Just wow. I wanted to get into Beck, and Guero was it.
If you're considering getting Guero, then get it. It's amazing.
Every song is great, but I have to say Farewell Ride is my favorite. You may have heard Hell Yes, though.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Chaotic and Cool
Comment: I really like this CD. But then, I like Beck's chaos/repetetive sort of style. This is a really good CD if you're into Beck or music like his.

Editorial Reviews:

Now that Beck has effectively exorcised his personal demons with 2002's hyperconfessional Sea Change, he can get back to the business of being a total fruit loop. We all know what that involves: videogame sound effects, random shouting in Spanish, and rhymes about popsicles and vegetable vans. And that's just the second track. Guero is like every Beck album condensed into one, a no-holds-barred collision of two-turntables and a microphone with the added bonus of guitars, bossa-nova beats, Jack White, lyrics about spaceships, and dumptrucks full of ideas all fighting to be heard above the ruckus. It's an exhausting and exhilarating listen with lots of peaks, such as the digitized power ballad "Broken Drum" and handclap-drenched folk freak-out "Farewell Ride," and more than enough to restore anyone's faith in Beck as one of the most chaotically inspired songwriters of our time. -- Aidin Vaziri
