is that shit or what? rumors...


that would be a pretty interesting idea. a brilliant idea actually. t'would explain the relatively fast timeframe being dedicated to recording.

This is the first time I've heard the "cover" rumor. Where did you hear this at?

someone somewhere said that that they heard from someone who heard from someone who said they knew someone that knows that the album may be a cover album of music that has influenced them. sounds like an idea

I think the album will have a cover.

I just can't see them selling a piece of vinyl without any protective cover.

Wasn't that from the TT5B sessions though....the filas song was in the works...brr stick 'em up became a b-side. Not sure about that one.

though it'd be cool as say a bonus feature or a hidden track or two

Yeah I noticed that too, but someone posted that in the press section after they said they saw new song titles and I asked where they saw it...so I assumed it was new

I think this pic was posted as part of an interview that was conducted a few months back.

Those all look like working titles to me, personally.

You Gotta Be Kidding sounds like the title to a punk song, though.

Lite Bright and Modification Update remind me of "Flute Loop" and "The Negoatiation Limerick File" respectively.

I'm sure the tracks on the board are from the TT5B recordings... "BRR Stick'em" and "Gvmnt need a tune up" became B-Sides, so this might be a list of songs they recorded and didn't make it to the final list.
As for a cover record... HHHMMMMMMM... Don't know... IT's been done before (RATM)... But I still find it difficult to believe...

Definitely. I'd be a bit let down if it did turn out to be a cover album, but that doesn't mean it wouldn't be dope. Rage made an excellent album with Renegades...

Quite "un-cheesy". (y)

The pic you guys are refering to are from the brazilian mag "Trip". And yeah, it's quite new. It's from October-06.

Hmmm that's kinda interesting. I hope it's a hip hop covers and not a singing one!

I'd give it a chance, I suppose. I'm surprised I may be one of the fans who could be angered, is all.

mmm..I don't know about a whole cover album...I prefer hearing them as musicians with their compositions rather than them performing someone else's music...anyway I'm still very very curious, I am more for a soundtrack type of thing..would be great!(y)

i dunno, i'm excited to see how they interpret others' work. i think it might be redeem them in my eyes.

I don't think they're above a covers album...they can do whatever the fuck they want and people will buy it.

in the slim chance it is a cover album, I'm sure it would still be highly original and hip. just look at the "Time For Livin'" cover they did of Sly Stone's song of the same name; they pretty much just used the lyrics and reworked the whole song entirely. They even changed the structure. A covers album would be a small dissapointment, but it would still be off the fuckin' chain.

it would be interesting to see what way out songs they might cover. The unexpected. Benny and the Jets was a classic.

I wouldn't be too disappointed. Especially if it's done like say.........Me First and the Gimme Gimmes. It'd be funny if they would cover like Boys II Men and shit.

Well, some cover albums are cool. I thought Rage Against the Machine's cover album was good. However, most are lame.

I don't really dig those rumors, I hope that's not true. I can't even imagine that...I want somethin they come up with, with their own cleverness, I know they're so much better then that. But then again I'm not bein very open minded....ahhh I'm gonna feel like shit if it's a cover album now, 'cause then I already dissed it. = /

odds are strongly against a covers album, but at the same time, I'm sure it'd still be fuckin sick nonetheless.

if threads can go on for days about what beastie wears the best pants, then why try to kill a thread that is creative and speculating about a cover album? who cares if it isn't "true"... it's getting people to talk and think...

The Beastie Boys are currently working with the Pointer Sisters on a cover of "I'm So Excited". It has already been attached to feature in the soundtrack of Epic Movie 2.


"Beastie Boys feat. Country Mike" will release a special limited edition 12" of "Bohemian Rhapsody", too.

It would be a great statement of enivironmental awareness if they do in fact release an album with no cover. Also, security will have to be stepped up a notch at the record stores, thus creating more jobs in the community.

Though I am a cover junkie myself, no lie.

There is a rumour about the next one being covers of songs that influenced them, actually.

I can guarantee, without a shade of doubt, that the song entitled "Put on My Filas" is a hip-hop song.
