Vielleicht sollte es mal wirklich eine Debatte über Antisemitismus in der deutschen Politik geben. Der geht nämlich weit über Intifada-Schreihälse hinaus und ist hauptsächlich in der Mitte und insbesondere rechts der Mitte in der deutschen Gesellschaft verwurzelt.

Writing about the new Beck single again because I realized what it reminds me of. If you'd told me in 1994 when I got Mellow Gold that Beck would still be making tunes in 2026, I'd have thought you were nuts. But in addition to the Nigel Godrich touches making this new single sound like Mutations or Sea Change or Morning Phase, what it REALLY has is a 'Steal My Body Home' vibe.
