Beck’s new album coming soon
Beck’s much anticipated eighth studio album, yes the one produced by Gnarls Barkley’s Danger Mouse, could be seeing the light of day in the very near future.
According to MTV.com, the currently untitled upcoming album, which will also apparently feature a guest appearance by Cat Power’s Chan Marshall, could be release in the next four to six weeks…
Though neither his publicist nor his label would confirm any of it, MTV News has spoken to several individuals close to Beck, and they all tell us that he’s gearing up to release a brand new album in the very near future — think the next 4-6 weeks — through the Universal Music Group…
Our amazing sources also say that fans can expect an official announcement about the album veeerrrry soon.
Don’t expect any Nine Inch Nails-esque antics, however, as the album will go through the standard release process.
