Next week marks the conclusion of Beck and his Record Club's completion of Songs of Leonard Cohen, but this week, Beck, Devendra Banhart and MGMT deliver a proto-punk version of "Teachers" that comes with a video fo all of them goofing off in the studio. I guess it's about time someone translated Leonard Cohen into a raucous punk setting, but this is a bit of a mess. Atonal singing and shouting can be fun, but it less than that here.
I was fully prepared for this to be passable, given your high standards. You sir, however, are correct. Not so awesome.
lead guitar is terrible, unnecessary, and spoils even one your weaker covers of the album.do it again!
