Title: The Beasties
Post by: Sondra on June 23, 2004, 04:59:12 AM
So how about the Beastie Boys? Anyone think they're any good? They've been around for a long time haven't they?

The new album was a pretty good listen, stronger than their last one anyway. Kind of annoying that a lot of the tracks sound identical to one another, but it's still pretty entertaining. Worth the six year wait? Not really, but it ain't bad at least.

The Beastie Boys are one of the most overrated acts of the 80's just like U2 & Madonna while my only favorite song by them is You Got A Fight For Your Right To Party.

You're absolutely out of your skull,Wayne!  (no offense)
Please don't crowd U2 in with Slobdonna and the Sucksie Boys.

Ha Ha! The Girls' Song has NOTHING to do with the Beastie Boys....just some really crappy track that made it to radio. They're a rap/rock group, which that song obviously isn't even close to being....the first album bites anyway, but if you check out Paul's Boutique, you may dig the grooves.

The Beasties have now lasted 2 decades. I particularly like the fact that they learned instruments after the phenomenal success of their first album and played live. Also their video's (Especially Sabotage) directed by Spike Jones are very entertaining. The brainchild of Rick Rubin I believe. (Defjam records).

"Let me clear my throat!!" lol

They're my second favorite rap band. They kick ass.

i like the beastie boys. i agree with you though that Madonna is horrible.

I guess U2's earlier stuff wasn't bad, but I don't like their current directin.

Love them. Especially "Ill Communication" (when I was 16 I played that CD every day for a year... literally) and "Check Your Head".

I only don't like their first and their last album. I'm really not into that Fight For Your Right crap, and I'm glad they've distanced theirselves from that stuff. The music they made in the 90's was soooooooo much better.
Title: Re: The Beasties
Post by: Joost on February 24, 2005, 09:34:29 PM
I really can't believe that anyone can think that Fight For Your Right is a better song than The Maestro, or Shake Your Rump, or Flute Loop...

Well, I don't like them at all, but that's just my opinion. It's not really my style of music- rap, that is.

I don't like 95% of all rap either, but the Beastie Boys are much more creative and musical than most rap acts, and I like their attitude a lot better (they even have songs in which they distance theirselves from sexist remarks in their early songs).
