We could have a little discussion in here if you want.

I've had the self titled for the longest time, always liked it. I had God of Love when I was 16, but it sounded too much like heavy metal to me. And the reggae was all inside the heavier tracks, like they were switching up and back in one song, which killed the momentum. The dub tracks on it weren't bad though. I also have a couple of random songs laying around, of them I really enjoy 'I against I'.

My favourites: The Big Takeover, Attitude, Sailin on, The Regulator, Supertouch/shitfit and Right Brigade. But everything on s/t is good fun.

I don't think Beastiemania has Supertouch/Shitfit listed as a sample used on The Maestro. They might want to.

It's funny how MCA looks like a nerdy fan in pictures with the Bad Brains. Like how one of us must look when we meet him.

Anybody who may not have given them a listen, and enjoys the Beastie Boys hardcore stuff should definitley check out Bad Brains. You can tell what influences the Boys when you listen to it. The closest Beasties song to this style; realistically probably Mullethead. Lots of slight switches, a guitar solo. hmmmmmmm.....So this new album should be interesting. (y)

If the new Beastie Boys album is a hardcore album I will probably shit myself.

Yeah I have the self titled Bad Brains album too and I love it. I would buy their others too but they aren't exactly widely distributed and they're expensive as fuck when I do see them.

Oh alright. I want it too, they've got to be the last 80's hardcore band of any significance to still be around.

beastie boys used to open for bad brains, not vice versa. the bad brains were their idols when they started out, i doubt they would ever kick them off a tour.

but seriously, for real, when talking about Bad Brains, all that really needs to said is this:

watch that, then realize everything else is pretty fake and lame.
