Beck Reveals Album Title, Release Date
If NME.com is to believed, the new Beck album is called The Information, and is out October 2 in the UK. We assume that means it\'s coming out a day later, October 3, in the U.S. on Interscope.
As previously reported, the disc was produced by Nigel Godrich, features the songs "Cell Phone\'s Dead", "Think I\'m in Love", and "Nausea", comes with a blank cover and a sheet of stickers inside for you to make your own art, and is paired with a DVD of videos for each song.
Beck is currently on the road hitting the European festival circuit. NME reports that when he hits England\'s V Festivals on August 19 and 20, "He will be joined onstage by a group of puppets for his entire set."
"He will be joined onstage by a group of puppets for his entire set."
Sounds a bit gimmicky to me.
