American singer-songwriter and rock musician Beck has a new album entitled Modern Guilt, produced by Danger Mouse and featuring the song "Chemtrails, " which can be heard on his official website and at his Myspace site. The album is slated for an early summer release. "Chemtrails" will not be the first single from the album.
Chemtrails is a term being used by a growing number of people who believe that many trails being left by planes are not harmless vapour trails but are potentially dangerous because they are said to contain barium, aluminium and other toxic substances and are being used for weather modification and military purposes.
By calling his new song Chemtrails, Beck is certain to find himself plenty of new fans from the ranks of those protesting about what they see in the sky.
"Chemtrails" is a genre-bending tour de force that showcases Beck and producer Danger Mouse's shared affection for late '60s psych-pop as Beck takes his songwriting and performing skills in yet another bold, unforeseen and as always captivating new direction.
Zane Lowe's BBC Radio 1 show has already premiered Chemtrails, and the album is being released on Interscope in the US and on XL Records in the rest of the world.
Beck came to fame with his single Loser in 1994. His most recent album, "The Information," came out in October 2006.
Beck embarks on a world tour beginning late June in Europe, and hitting the States in time for several major festivals (Bumbershoot, Outside Lands, Austin City Limits) as well as his biggest ever hometown headline gig September 20th at the Hollywood Bowl.
