Beastie Boys

Hello Nasty

Hip Hop Back in stock 180 gram double vinyl set faithfully restored and reissued On their previous album 'Ill Communication' the Beastie Boys expanded their parameters yet again melding cuttingedge hiphop with slinky jazz buttwiggling funk weepy classical and combustive punk rock Four years down the line the group's music isn't nearly as organic They've all but abandoned the guitars and returned to the kind of oldschool beats and rhythms that defined their groundbreaking 1989 album 'Paul's Boutique' But 'Hello Nasty' isn't a regression and it's anything but a copout in addition to resurrecting the best elements from their past the Beastie Boys have embraced the dopest high tech gizmos of the computer age 'Hello Nasty' gurgles like galactic sulfur pools whizzes like a Sega game and slurps and thumps like the best backward Hendrix loops Add in a cavalcade of Latin percussion calliope keyboards and exotic samples Stravinsky Stephen Sondheim Jazz Crusaders Rachmaninoff and you're left with one of the most creative and jubilant hiphop records to date 'Paul's Boutique' may have been the band's 'Pet Sounds' but 'Hello Nasty' is the Beasties' 'Sgt Pepper's
