In anticipation of his headlining performances at Governors Ball and Mountain Jam this weekend, alternative rock icon Beck has dropped his first new song of 2016. The song is called “Wow,” and it definitely brings that effect, with it’s glitchy beat and rhymes reminiscent of Beck’s Odelay-era from the 90s.
The track is a stark contrast from his last album Morning Phase, which won Album of the Year at the Grammy’s and was mostly acoustic folk music. With “Wow” and his previous single, 2015’s “Dreams,” it seems Beck is focusing on more pop-centric direction for his upcoming album, due out this fall.
