Albumism’s 50 Best Albums of 2017 | #12: Beck’s ‘Colors’

December 6, 2017 Albumism Staff

#12
Beck | Colors
Capitol | Official Store | Amazon | iTunes

According to Quentin Harrison: “What makes Colors a redefining moment for Beck is its abandonment of care in relation to critical reception and its embrace of experimental pop methodology at its most florid and fun….Totaling 11 tracks—12 if one gets the deluxe edition which includes another variation on “Dreams”—it's an athletic set of songs that carries its joy in its music and mood effortlessly. And that is what makes Colors such a fantastic record. It brings across Beck's acceptance of his best pop self and the resulting music just feels so damn good.”
