Hell Yes! He's Beck
UPDATE 1/25: Beck's publicist just wrote me, "The video for 'Hell Yes' is directed by Mumbleboy and is online only. It's from a 4 song remix EP that will be available on digital outlets 2/1. It's not the first single, but a special online only video."
Beck comes back strong with the single "Hell Yes" from his forthcoming album "Guero" (in stores on March 29). (Thanks Josh and Calvin!)

Wait, this is a remix? I was hoping it was the real version, because it's much better than the leaked one.

this is a remix of the song done by an LA robot rap group called 8-bit. you can check out info about that band at: ninjastarrecords.com

If thats the version on the LP then i'm biiterly dissapointed. I don;t think people will take any notice of it; the whole post-modernism of teh vocoder; the sardonic tone of Beck: but his rapping is neither dynamic enough nor lyrically interesting enough on this track.
i'm a huge fan, but this seemed like an offcut of a midnight vultures instrumental tagged onto some poetry he span out in five minutes, a lashing of odelay blah blah blah.
I dunno, the whole 8-bit quantized thing is like over three years old now...i'd prefer it if he mixed the glitch of Brothomstates with a touch of bjork...

This is a quality song--once again, Beck will prove his place in rock history. He's revolutionary.

i think it is unique and very catchy. sure, there isnt much to the lyrics, but i still love it.
