Beck to release new album October 21
Says Morning Phase followup draws from The Strokes
Beck's new LP will come out October 21 of this year.
Beck's previous album, Morning Phase, drew from 2002's Sea Change, a bleak fan-favourite in his catalogue. He describes his coming record as drawing from other fan-favourite selections in his backlogue. This time, he draws from his upbeat 90s hits, including 'Where It's At'.
Regarding his return to a more joyous sound, Beck says he was inspired by the celebratory energy he encountered at summer gigs this past year or so. He indicated a desire to draw from the high-energy live acts of bands like The Strokes, with whom he played last summer.
