This album of Beck is very far from his previous album and is much quieter and melodious. It is also very uniform, there is a kind of unity in all the pieces that are often not found in the albums beck. The album tu genius on "Round the Bend", "paper tiger" and "Lonesome Tears". So obviously we can always criticize copying arangemenets cargo cult of Gainsbourg on "paper tiger" but when the copy is at least equal to the original, or is the problem? Those who bought songs like "cold brains" and "nobody's fault but my own" Mutations can buy this album without hesitation.
