Mellow Gold ist ein mutiger, zusammengeflickter Bastard aus gefälligen Folksongs (Pay no Mind, Nitemare Hippy Girl), Mantras (Black Hole, Steal my Body Home), Noiseattacken (Mutherfucker, Sweet Sunshine) und allerlei musikalischer Frechheiten – angereichert mit Lyrics die auf ewig ihresgleichen suchen.

3. März 2024 · Beck didn’t invent the insurgent mainstream interloper on Mellow Gold, but you’d be hard-pressed to name a finer example.

The magazine had reservations, ...
The album went into the Top 20 all across Scandinavia, although the response in Europe’s biggest markets was still tentative, and the album peaked just outside the Top 40 in both the UK and Germany. But it was still a talking point come the end of the year. In December 1994, Geffen’s head of international Mel Posner, told Billboard: “Beck is finish...
14. Mai 2018 · Mellow Gold finds itself lodged somewhere between folk, hip-hop, psychedelia, and noise. The result is brilliant but an uneasy concoction that with each song mires itself a little deeper in deeply strange territory.
