Guero is the sixth official studio album and ninth overall by American musician Beck, released on March 29, 2005 through Interscope. It is seen by many as a return to the style of Odelay, mainly because this album, like Odelay, is produced with the Dust Brothers and Tony Hoffer. It also recalls Mutations in places with its Brazilian influences.

The album was promoted with three singles: "E-Pro" was the lead single, with "Girl" and "Hell Yes". It debuted on Billboard's Top 200 Album chart at #2 (where it went gold), and in the UK at #15 (where it went silver). To date, this is Beck's highest charting album and has sold 868,000 copies in the United States, as of July 2008. It has received positive reviews from critics.

An unmixed and un-mastered version of Guero was leaked in January 2005, under the title Ubiquitous. The track listing differed slightly from the officially announced track listing of Guero. The album was released simultaneously in three formats: a standard 13-track CD with none of the bonus tracks or remixes, PlayStation Portable UMD, and a DVD/CD combo pack. The CD included all the below listed tracks while the DVD featured a 5.1 surround sound mix of the 13 album tracks along with abstract, multi-angle videos by visual artists D-Fuse as well as other videos and special features.

The track "E-Pro" was remixed by Paza Rahm and released on the Hell Yes EP as "Bad Cartridge". The EP was released on vinyl, as an iTunes Store download, and in CD format for college radio. "E-Pro" was Beck's first number 1 since his debut single "Loser".
