New Beastie Boys album arriving on June 15


I received a Quicktime update today that said the single "Ch-Check It Out" from the new BB album, To The 5 Boroughs, is in the iTunes store right now.

The Beastie Boys' homepage doesn't have any details about the album, I guess because it's under construction.

Doesn't matter though, I'm still looking forward to it.

Just a "bump" for the other Beastie fans out there.

Bye!

Wow I can't believe no one has commented on this one yet. I have given the disc a spin and I really like what I heard the first time through. If you pick it up at Best Buy or Circuit City, it can be had for $9.99!

I'm glad to see the Beasties back and releasing new music!

I am not a fan of rap but I do like the Beastie Boys...I bought The 5 Bouroughs out of respect if nothing else. I was in high school when License to Ill was released.

The Beastie Boys members must be right around the 40s by now. These are some old school rappers for sure.


I bought the album today and am on the second song right now, I like it so far.

I've been listening to this record since last week.

Dope. Pure and Simple.

I am a huge Beasties fan.

I am disappointed in the this album overall because of lyrics.

The political lyrics and the lack of creativity in general bugs me.

I still like the album, but I think it does not come close to Hello Nasty as a recent comparison.

I agree, it's taking me a while to warm up to this album. After Ill Communication and Hello Nasty a majority of tracks on this album sound very halfassed - it's almost as if a lot of the beats were done in an afternoon.

However, given the material and what it's trying to say I'm not surprised by the somberness of this album, I just wish it was a little more upbeat.

Well, Rolling Stone just slapped their 5-star ranking on this album. I like it a lot, but I could have gone without the politics. I downloaded the "Clean" version off of Wal-Mart, fo easier listening in the car. I also ordered the "EXPLICIT" version on LP. Can't wait!
