Mutations is the sixth studio album by the American songwriter Beck, released on November 3, 1998, by DGC Records.

[5] The production style was very different from that of Beck's previous album Odelay, which was heavily influenced by hip hop music and contained many samples.

The record's front cover, a picture of Beck tangled in plastic wrap, was taken by the music photographer Autumn de Wilde.

[6] Singles were released for the songs "Tropicalia", "Cold Brains" (Australia and New Zealand only), and "Nobody's Fault but My Own" (Japan only).

Beck appeared on Saturday Night Live in promotion of Mutations, performing "Tropicalia" and "Nobody's Fault but My Own".
