Knock yourself out with the brand new single from Beck called ‘Gimme’. It follows two previous one-off summer singles, ‘Defriended’ and ‘I Won’t Be Long’.
As we had previously mentioned, Beck is releasing two albums later this year, first an acoustic one reminiscent of his 1994′s One Foot in the Grave and a second album which will be the proper follow-up to Modern Guilt. None of these singles will be included in the upcoming albums but if they are anything to go by, we’re in for one hell of a treat.
A limited edition double 12″ of the track is now available to order on Beck’s website. Other than the original cut, this release features an instrumental version, and extended-length edit and two halves of a 30-minute extended mix of the track.
