Playing bass. That's Justin Meldal-Johnsen, Beck's bass player. He was featured in the magazine a couple months back.

I feel like a dick for saying this, but probably hair loss.

That would explain a hat; it doesn't explain that hat. Not that I really care. The song was good.

the arrangement and vocal lines really reminded me of Homogenic by Bjork. Good stuff.

I hear that. Also "Pyramid Song" by Radiohead.

He kinda looks like an Amish farm hand.

Since I hadn't know about the new album... I bought it. I like it!

Hey Hey! That 47 looked a bit shiny and new. Clone?

I got it a few days before the SNL performance after a friend/client had brought it over for me to listen to. I've never hated Beck but never really got too into him. I love this album. Cohesive songs and cohesive feel of the album - two things that I found lacking to my taste in the past. Acoustic guitar-based, 70s-ish dry drums, and beautiful swells of ambient sounds. I'm loving this one.
