POLL MAKIN' : The Beastie Boys "Hello Nasty" Poll

I've barely listened to most of it for years, but this was the most anticipated album of my life before its release. A feeling that will never be replicated.

Same here. And for a while it was my favourite. Not so much now - it kind of sags a bit in places. I like the 'Mellon Collie'-style ballad section towards the end a lot though.

I never got my head round Check Your Head when I was younger for some reason but my housemate left it on the turntable the other day and I was blown away. It sounds like something that just couldn't have an equivalent today

CYH their pinnacle IMHO

I think it's because when I was first getting into them, I heard The In Sound To Way Out before CYH, so I found it a bit of a strangely disjointed listen
