The long wait for a new Beck album — punctuated with multiple singles, collaborations and tours — is over as of today, September 18, with the release of Ride Lonesome.
Produced by Beck and mixed by Nigel Godrich, Ride Lonesome is already being hailed as "that rarest of things: a sequel to a sequel that’s every bit as good as its predecessors" by the GUARDIAN, "a stunning display of the alchemy of turning pain into sheer beauty" by MOJO, "another success, beautiful and evocative” by the WALL STREET JOURNAL and “spacious and unhurried” by THE NEW YORK TIMES.
Ride Lonesome's release is also marked by the premiere of a striking new video of the album’s second song, “Run Away.” Directed by Mikai Karl, produced by Ryan Smale and starring Golden Globe-winning actor Tadanobu Asano (Shogun, Thor: Ragnarok, Ichi the Killer), “Run Away” sees the sublime piano and guitar based melodies of the Ride Lonesome standout scoring interwoven narratives of lives on a parallel tracks set against the compelling backdrop of a Tokyo cityscape.
