Beck ► Run Away

The undisputed chameleon of alternative rock, sonic wanderer, and master of melancholic beauty is officially back after a seven-year hiatus with a milestone release that feels like an instant classic! According to Rolling Stone, the iconic Beck has just unleashed a stunning new music video for “Run Away”—filmed on location in Tokyo, Japan, and starring acclaimed Japanese actor Tadanobu Asano—dropping simultaneously alongside his eagerly awaited new studio album, Ride Lonesome.

  • The Anatomy of a Spiritual Trilogy: Directed by Mikai Karl (who also helmed Beck’s previous visuals for the album, including the French actor Denis Lavant-starring video for “In the Night”), the cinematic clip for “Run Away” perfectly mirrors the mood of Ride Lonesome. Music critics and publications are already heralding the record as the stunning completion of a spiritual trilogy alongside his legendary orchestrated works Sea Change and Morning Phase. With the global tour in support of the new release officially kicking off on September 22, Beck is once again redefining the boundaries of alternative singer-songwriter craft.
  • A Tokyo Nocturne: The visual collaboration with Tadanobu Asano captures the moody, reflective atmosphere of the track, blending foreign neon landscapes with the intimate, bruised lyricism that has defined Beck’s most introspective eras. It’s a breathtaking artistic statement from an artist who continues to evolve while honoring his deepest emotional roots.

The MusicWayATX Verdict: Ride Lonesome and its cinematic visuals are a triumph of maturity and vision. Beck proves that seven years away only sharpen the brilliance of an authentic icon.
