...clear funk influence pervades the disc; despite layers and layers of noise, the larger portions of tracks such as "Milk and Honey" and the high-energy first single "Sexx Laws" remain sparse, highlighting the intertwining riffs which pop from guitar to bass to trumpet to sax and back. "Sexx Laws" and its driving horns might come straight from the James Brown songbook; other tunes could back up gangsta rap (though it's unlikely Method Man would tolerate this couplet, from "Hollywood Freaks": "We drop lobotomy beats/Evaporated meats"). The fantastically mellow "Debra" even features an impassioned falsetto vocal delivered...

...content to merely lay down the groove and the ridiculous innuendo, Beck punctuates these tunes with seemingly incongruent sections. The chorus of "Milk and Honey" is radio-worthy arena rock; "Sexx Laws" breaks for a synthesizer-slide guitar-banjo trio. Yes, a banjo. This would seem to be either an odd attempt at musical novelty or a drug-inspired venture into self-indulgence. But, like the rest of Midnite Vultures, the banjo works, and brilliantly...

...read up on eye incisions that would make weaker men flinch, learned that James Thurber, after becoming blind, composed whole pages of prose in his head, and discovered that in ancient Egypt, medication for such problems might consist of urine, saliva, honey, the whites of eggs and "the milk of a woman who had borne only boys." Yet all the knowledge in the world could not erase the fact that the words and the paintings that had always been his lifeline were fading from his view...

...TIME chose him to prepare a dinner for 2025 that would be good for the body--and the planet. In his tasty menu, liver pate gives way to lentil pate, steak is replaced by tofu cutlet and a banana-and-ice-cream dessert is made with rice milk instead of cow's milk. Lanza's critter-free meal has less than half the calories of a meat-heavy dinner and a third of the total fat. And lest you think meat-free eating means protein-free eating, the percentage of calories from protein in Lanza's meal is the same...
