Beck kept fans and critics guessing about how he'd follow up Sea Change, and in 2005 he released the genre-mashing Guero. His eighth album reunited him with the Dust Brothers, with an assist from producer Tony Hoffer, for a tour de force of Latin rhythms, guitars, beats, samples, 8-bit electronics, turntables, and vocoder, a fun and freewheeling ride through rock, hip-hop, bossa nova, country-blues, and soul. Lead single E-Pro became an instant favorite alongside Girl, Hell Yes, and Go It Alone, which features Jack White on bass.
