Beck just released a lyric video for his new song 'Dear Life' check it out below! Hailed in advance by ROLLING STONE as a "euphoric blast of experimental pop," Beck's 13th album Colors has been confirmed for an October 13 release on Capitol Records. Possibly the most aptly titled work in Beck's storied discography, Colors unfolds in an intoxicating rainbow of auditory tricks and treats, making it a shoo-in for the summeriest smash of the fall season. The newest advance taste of the album is the captivating piano-driven "Dear Life," available instantly with pre-orders placed at http://beck.to/colors and subject of a lyric video directed by Jimmy Turrell, Laura Gorun and Brook Linder and featuring animation by Drew Tyndell and Rhiannon Tyndell.

Colors is Beck's first full length offering of new material since 2014's Morning Phase took Album of the Year top honors at the 57th Annual Grammy Awards, as well as Best Rock Album and Best Engineered Album (Non-Classical) category. In addition to the newly unveiled "Dear Life," Colors includes both Beck singles that preceded it: a new mix of the psych-dance summer jam "Dreams" that NPR hailed as "urgently contemporary and irresistibly vintage" as it gave Beck his second #1 single at AAA radio (the first being Morning Phase's "Blue Moon"), and the retro-futuristic earworm and USA TODAY Song of the Week "Wow" that had STEREOGUM praising its "big, sweet incandescent hook" and plainly stating "It's a great song!" while ESQUIRE rejoiced "All hail the return of Party Beck."

Colors is also available for pre-order at Beck.com in a limited edition deluxe vinyl format featuring two 180g 45rpm red vinyl LPs in a special die-cut gatefold package, with a customizable color transparency cover and 24-page booklet. Digitally, Colors can be pre-ordered through Apple Music, pre-saved via Spotify, and more.
