Rolling Stone gave Beck’s album “Colors” 4 out 5 stars and said it was a “brilliant attempt to reckon with — and put his own stamp on — modern pop in the late 2010s.”

“The result is his most straight-ahead fun album since the Nineties,” wrote author Will Hermes.

The pop culture magazine in 2017 called the songs “Dreams” and “Wow” the highlights of the now-Grammy award-winning album, but said nearly every other song was also deserving.

For many, Cage The Elephant is a household name, too. The alternative band has charted hits including “Trouble,” “Come A Little Closer,” “Back Against The Wall,” and “Ain’t No Rest For The Wicked.”
