"Beck has just completed his new album, which he's been in the studio working on with Nigel Godrich," a post announced on Beck's official site. It'll be his third proper album in a row with Godrich, who also manned the controls on 2002's Sea Change and last year's Guero. Beck was unavailable for comment regarding the new album, but look for him to road test new material when he heads out on his summer tour next month.

Beck tour dates:
6/14, Athens, GA (Georgia Theatre)
6/15, Atlanta (Tabernacle)
6/17, Manchester, TN (Bonnaroo)
6/19, Tulsa, OK (Cain's Ballroom)
6/20, Austin (The Backyard)
6/21, Grand Prairie, TX (Nokia Theatre)
