••• BEASTIE BOYS - Hot Sauce Committee Part Two •••

but, still with the distortion pedal vocals? really guys?

That's almost like saying "Still with the harmonica? Really, Dylan?"

reissued instrumental version of paul's boutique would pretty much be the only way to get me to buy beastie boys product in 2011.

seriously, though, dylan should have cooled it with the fucking harmonica years ago.

lol

the difference is the harmonica is an instrument, one that sounds nice

the distortion pedal vocals thing is a one-trick pony that SOUNDS SHITTY

Eh, their penchant for distorted vocals has never bothered me at all I guess. Sometimes they use that trick, sometimes they don't. I've never heard them use it when it made absolutely no sense to do it.

am i hearing this right? 30 seconds in and they've rhymed "this" with "this"?

i just don't understand why aging, past-prime rappers are so obsessed with rapping about how they're knocking all the other rappers out. there are so many subjects they could tackle, and instead it's just "woo! we just slayed all the wack competition!" and no you fucking didn't.

I'M TAKING MCS DOWN WITH LETHAL RAP INJECTIONS!

i just don't understand why aging, past-prime rappers are so obsessed with rapping about how they're knocking all the other rappers out

uh this is what hip hop is about...? do you ask yourself why young, shitty rappers are so obsessed with rapping about this very same thing?

I dunno, I feel like the old guys go off more on this than the young guys, who have materialism and sexual violence to entertain themselves with as well

also the drug trade

yeah, the beastie boys should really go back to rapping about penetrating girls with wiffle ball bats, good call, anthony

do you even believe yourself when you write stuff like that?

do you believe it when you write stuff like that to noz?

smdh

sorry if I was being a little too tongue-in-cheek there, but I didn't mean to suggest that the Beasties had to go back to the PBR, just that allegedly enlightened codgers going on about how they're blowing the competition away cracks me up

man when will don rickles stop insulting ppl

really sorry you guys are offended by my irreverence towards their lyrical bankruptcy, guys

yeah, because everyone loves it when they talk about THE ISSUES, MAN

Oh man, I'd forgotten all about that.

No thanks for reminding me.

i refuse this false binary and continue to say this new song sucks

they just suck in general kinda.

this isn't a new thing.

I wish Yauch would direct videos for other people, Horowitz would produce music for other people and Diamond would judge a competition show or find hip-hop scenes in other nations for the Travel Channel or something

diamond still look like skeletor? frightening.

it's not hurting Steven Tyler's TV career any

I wish Yauch would direct videos for other people, Horowitz would produce music for other people and Diamond would judge a competition show or find hip-hop scenes in other nations for the Travel Channel or something

kinda OTM, but Yauch is making docos and producing films for other people (or was until, you know, cancer). actually when was the last time Adrock produced a half-decent record? I would have bought ten more albums like the first BS2000, but the shitty twee-synth-pop of the second was a jawdropper, and the Latch Brothers remixes I've heard all suck.

+1 for Diamond aping the Skeletor vibe

I don't think the new single is bad at all. Could almost imagine making some noise if surrounded by sea of bodies at Roseland.

On their side in general, but that's probably because Licensed to Ill was one of the first cassettes I ever bought, back in '87 (along with No Jacket Required and The Joshua Tree, shudder). And hell there aren't a lot of bands from that era that are still around and least trying to make music. So Beastie it up.

there are WAY too many bands from that era still around making music. every metal band and every punk band that ever put out a single or an album in the 80's is right now on tour. hey we all have to pass the time somehow. god bless them.

This is funny, but also nsfw if your workplace is weird about dirty words:

^ this is THE SHIT!

as usual it would be better if they werent on there

Watched the new video the other night. Mostly reinforced how much I fucking hate Danny McBride.

agh I posted it in the wrong thread...full Fight For Your Right revisited:

http://www.juxtapoz.com/Current/beastie-boyss-fight-for-your-right-revisited-full

Really super psyched for the new album based on what I've heard.

Gonna try to watch the full thing tonight.

It's pretty fun!

new video just went on and on... and on... and on.... then on some more in slow-mo...

Elijah nails Ad-Rock tho, tis true

I dunno, i liked how it was a long music video, and the cameos were pretty fun...it all seemed in the spirit of the original (shrug)

Elijah seems to kind of get the movement of Ad Rock, the other two have the look but it sort of ends there with them.

And i dunno, the long knot-untying joke was kinda funny to me

but I dont hate any of those dudes and i lay my Beasties stan cards on the table, lol

Elijah seems to kind of get the movement of Ad Rock

I thought it was MAD UNCANNY.

You guys!!

Whole album streaming here http://livestre.am/J0Nl

(It takes a few minutes to start...but !!! they set up a boombox in the middle of an empty Madison Square Garden and are playing it into the PA!)

not sure how much MSG is contributing but I like the swampy dubby vibe of the tracks I've heard so far

digging it so far...good funky vibes, kind of an old school Paul's Boutique feel to a lot of it

but with Check Yr Head vox, lol

sasquatch on the field

hope he comes back out...was hoping he'd play some ball

okay definitely excited now...that sounded GREAT

i'm kind of digging this. last thing i purchased was hello nasty which i thought was just ok at the time. it's prob due another listen.

paulhw, eat a bag of dicks dipped in cocoa butter...k thx

paulhw way off the money, this is surprisingly good and I'm finding I like it a little more with each listen. I mean, yeah, we can talk a little bit about the lyrics being corny and lots OF shouting EVERY other WORD but, c'mon, thats been the case for a long time now.

yea that's kinda like criticizing Prince for squealing, I mean, it's been the Beasties' MO since they went from hardcore to hip hop.

and personally I adore the Beasties goofiness

i was one of the few who liked To the Five Boroughs, but it was clearly still a low point in their catalog. this is soooooo refreshing.

Listening to the full album and my enjoyment is kinda dependent on how long I can go without focusing on the lyrics (did you know these guys are crushing the competition?). Music's fun when it doesn't get too trudgy - def feels like a step up from 5 Boroughs.

This is a pretty good record, you know?

Way more interesting musically and with much better tunes than 5 Burroughs.

Totally in agreement. I ended up listening to it a lot over the course of 2011, and again over the last few days.

same here. The highlight is the 1:56 "Funky Donkey."

yeah, it's not amazing but it's a solid album. glad that to the 5 boroughs was not their swansong.

exactly, but outside of a few tracks not much I'd want to hear again

Lee Majors Come Again is killer

yeah - that + "Too Many Rappers" were my favorites

it disappointed me b/c I heard the awesome record store day single with those DJ Hero mixes with DJ Shadow and the Daft Punk samples and it briefly made me wonder if the new album was going to be a cut-n-scratch DJ thing, like a new Paul's Boutique
