LAST ALBUM?

[pesto pizza]

Well from sources that I have read form 2009-2011 they have stated that there are more songs(from HSCPT2 era) that were going to be given away via mp3s(weird songs) or put on a second album.
Also in January 2011 all the beasties were back in the studio with Biz Markie recordings songs.
Maybe in may 2013 the beasties will release something in respect to Yauch?

[romanpetr]

That's ll be great! All the more so they 've a lot of tracks in the archive from the "The Mix Up" - era too... So life goes on...
Any ideas for the title of the new album? Maybe "Transitions"?

2013 seems a bit early given the last album came out in 2011, especially given the fact that its the Beastie Boys we're talking about (not prolific with the releases). But if I had to bet, given all the factors and info that have been discussed on this board, we will see a new Beastie Boys album. I would say 2015 at the very earliest (probably 2016 is more likely).

[Bernard Goetz]

I would assume the whole approach of releasing records half a decade apart went out the window last May. If there is an eventual "new" album, I'd be shocked if we don't hear it within the next year.

I agree with that,it will be soon or never.
I only think there will be because of the jan 2011 recording sessions with biz markie.

[Brother McDuff]

i can't imagine Mike and Adam will be in any hurry to move forward with anything band related for some time. if we ever hear the remaining HSC cuts I wouldn't expect them any time soon.

im willing to bet we'll never see this album as a release, rather some of the songs will surface here and there as bonus tracks tacked on to future re-releases and such.

who knows though, we're dealing with the arguably the most unpredictable band of our generation.

Wow after reading that I seriously feel like I could have written it. Obviously I think you're right on all points.

[Brass Monk]

I'm not understanding all the skepticism about a new Beastie Boys album coming out (although I'm not expecting it anytime soon).
Everything we have heard points more to there being one then not......

[JoLovesMCA]

I get really excited when I see Adrock or Mike doing their own thing, but as the Beastie Boys I say too soon. Way too soon. But that’s me. If a year from now those two want to put the band together and jam out then I will support them and I know they’d do exactly what MCA wanted them to do.

Yeah, when I refer to a new Beastie Boys album, I'm referring to utilizing MCA's recordings. I am of the opinion that without Yauch its not the Beastie Boys.

[LilTreyR]

When you think about the meaning of whatever "last" recordings that are out there have to those two, we may never hear another release. As much as I selfishly want it, I am at peace with that. Not sure why but suddenly I feel like all that they have given us as a group, is all we will have. Forever grateful.

I don't know why - I can understand why people would have different feelings about it - but I say the sooner the better. I felt that way immediately. Even more than that, I feel like they should release everything and continue making music. I don't think it's motivated primarily by selfishness either. Money Mark once said in an interview that the Beastie Boys were the only other band besides the Beatles that he loved everything by - b-sides, unreleased tracks, weird, experimental songs, goofs, whatever. I feel the same way and think it would be a huge loss if there was more music (old and new) and none of it was ever released and enjoyed. I mean, Hot Sauce Committee is an amazing album. If there is another one and it's never released, that's just a net loss of hot sauce. Pure subtraction.

You don't have to understand why other people have a different viewpoint than you. Like I said previously, why rush? Why rush them to come out with an album/single/rare tracks/finished work/whatever it may be?

I think that Mike and H are set. They are settling down with their families and making the best of their lives. Seeing them at appearances, or seeing Adrock with Bridgett, or seeing Mike with his kids surfing, I mean let them be.

Of course it would be AMAZING if they came out with something, I'd be thrilled, but at the same time....

It hasn't even been a year, think about it.
That's just my opinion.

I'm definitely only talking about this from a fan perspective. However they feel about it is clearly the only issue. I just can't help but think an unreleased album would be a huge and real loss to a lot of people. They don't owe me or anyone else anything, and you can understand why they might not want to do anything at all with the music, but still...

[Brother McDuff]

I just can't help but think an unreleased album would be a huge and real loss to a lot of people.

losing a third of your band is a loss. after releasing eight albums and countless EPs, I don't think withholding one record at the tail end of their career is the end of the world. anyone here would welcome new material, that's not even a question, but to pine over such a thing right now seems just a little premature given the circumstances, imo.

[YoungRemy]

I think 2013 won't see much activity, but anywhere in early to mid (summer) '14 seems like a decent approach. this would coincide with what would have been Yauch's 50th. it would also give them time to heal while working slowly behind the scenes on something, whether it is old or new material...

Led Zeppelin released CODA two years after the band broke up following Bonham's tragic death.

Led Zeppelin guitarist and producer Jimmy Page explained that part of the reasoning for the album's release related to the popularity of unofficial Led Zeppelin recordings which continued to be circulated by fans:

"Coda was released, basically, because there was so much bootleg stuff out. We thought, "Well, if there's that much interest, then we may as well put the rest of our studio stuff out".

Led Zeppelin bass player John Paul Jones recalled:

"They were good tracks. A lot of it was recorded around the time punk was really happening... basically there wasn't a lot of Zeppelin tracks that didn't go out. We used everything.

According to the Led Zeppelin biography Hammer of the Gods, the band also owed Atlantic Records one more album from the five-album deal that created Swan Song Records in 1974. As such, Coda can be seen as a contractual fulfilment.

does anyone know how or if Capitol plays into this?

[Megalon X]

Well, there's one thing. The band hasn't made an announcement about being done like Run DMC did after Jam Master Jay died. They even corrected that article for saying Mike D. was a former Beastie Boy. I don't know what that means, but it must mean something in regards to the future.

[Lyman Zerga]

i still dont understand the 'hot sauce committee part 2' thing completely

[Brother McDuff]

they called it "part 2" even though its really (intended to be) "part 1". thats it.

[Megalon X]

I'm still suspicious about whether or not that was a joke. Sort of like how back in the day some horror movies were called "Part 2" when there wasn't a Part 1 to be begin with.

[Jay Stone]

7/20/09 - Announcement of Yauch's condition

Am I the only one who thinks the whe Part one and Part 2 thing was just something they came up with after the delay due to Yauch's condition? They've always been bullshitters in interviews. I hate to say I don't think there is another completed album.

[Megalon X]

Would be nice if there was, but yeah that's my suspicion.

[MCScoobyT]

I didn't read the whole tread...
but I want to make the guess that new music will come out with the Memoir Book thingy, which is going to take a while to compile

[Brother McDuff]

I thought it was made pretty clear early on that there were two albums, because it was labeled as a 'part 1' from the very start. I don't imagine the other volume ever got completely finished, but I highly doubt it was just a big joke. Not to mention all the other jams they alluded to that were slated for the other volume, I.e. the bob Dylan radio show sample, mike's fart spray cologne rhyme, etc.

No. Do some research, this has been clarified umpteen times.

[Lyman Zerga]

I'm still suspicious about whether or not that was a joke. Sort of like how back in the day some horror movies were called "Part 2" when there wasn't a Part 1 to be begin with.

but there was a hscpt1 album cover around with more or less the same track list like on pt.2

it made more sense to me if they released pt1 and then couldnt finish pt2 because of yauch's condition

[facedownfall]

I'll agree with this post, but I'm still of the opinion that a new album will never see the light of day, and I'm ok with that. To me, it's not the Beastie Boys without Yauch.

I noticed the corrected article about Mike D. They were on a path to be the Rolling Stones of our generation, so it's likely that they never intended to breakup ever and they are keeping it that way. There will always be Beastie Boys, but they just won't record or tour anymore.

[Michelle*s_Farm]

Yeah, when I refer to a new Beastie Boys album, I'm referring to utilizing MCA's recordings. I am of the opinion that without Yauch its not the Beastie Boys.

I think a track without MCA's input can still be a Beastie Boys' track (I think it depends on its feel). I want to hear such tracks and see these tracks performed live. The name of the band does not really matter to me though, but I definitely want the band to continue making music even though MCA can no longer directly contribute other than in spirit (or perhaps some of the previous physical recordings he left). I would also be cool with the remaining members using his unpublished recordings as samples or tracks on new material (giving him credit of course). The idea that the Beastie Boys are not Beastie Boys without Yauch seems a little extreme to me. My ideal would be an album of new material (with and without Yauch's contributions). Some tracks would definitely have a rightfully Beastie-feel, while others may not.

[Megalon X]

I think they'll do something. Maybe a final album like Queen did after Freddie Mercury died utilizing tracks MCA had worked on.

If they weren't doing anything again, I really think they would have said that. I mean they may not be doing it now, but they seem selective about what they are doing or saying in interviews.

[Jay Stone]

While I doubt we'll ever get another album, I'd have no problem with a mostly Adam and Mike record, with a few joints that MCA worked on before he died.

There have been some tracks on their albums and some b-sides that featured only two of them, even a few with one Beastie...

I have really enjoyed some of those one lone Beastie tracks :)

[pesto pizza]

I think there will another album release of some kind in 2014 and then a year after that the book release.
Then adam and mike will retire from the beastie boys,maybe start a band together as a one off project? but mainly go into production.
I know I can't see into the future,but looking back at their past history thats the type of thing they would do

2014 sounds a bit early (even if the group was still fully intact).
Since Ill Communication it's taken about 4-6 years between releases.

2015 may be more likely. Perhaps a bit of marketing starting in January 2015 and then a multimedia special release (e.g., biography of the band, new CD, unreleased tracks and HD video footage of some sort -- gala event) on MCA Day. Would be nice.

[Kid Presentable]

Is MCA day a thing?

[Michelle*s_Farm]

I sure hope so :)

[MissCrafty]

I'd love to see one more album by them. They need to release HSC Part 1.. I really would love to hear it.

[YoungRemy]

well, yeah...

but if there's material that was recorded either in the HSC era or the post HSC era when Yauch was laying low, it makes sense to release that material as the Beastie Boys.

I don't know what Yauch told the guys, but I can only assume he gave them some guidance or blessing to release material without him...

i personally don't care about all the unreleased stuff from the Mario C era.

it's intriguing, and it would be cool to hear, but for a therapeutic purpose, I want to hear what Adam Yauch had to say on his last tracks ever recorded...

[Jiberish]

"Like a nexus 6 coming home to roost". If you know bladerunner than you know how deep this line is. If it's the last ever new vox we get to hear from MCA I think I'll beOK with that.

[Kid Presentable]

Here's a Little Somethin For Ya was new vox, too.

[YoungRemy]

Here's a Little Somethin For Ya was new vox, too.

which line? were the lyrics different than the version released on Rock Band or DJ Hero or whatever?

[Jay Stone]

Yeah, he redid the verse that had the line about death being the cousin of sleep (again.)

His second and third verses. Yup.

damn. forgot about the whole ACL orthopedic surgeon reference as well


almost 4 years have passed since summer '09 and the first HSC releases in the fall of that year...

crazy

[Michelle*s_Farm]

There will be a new LP sooner or later

[Eoin MCL]

Hey, any chance you guys could help me out? I've been digging for a few days in hope of finding the original pre Zdar version of "Here's A Little Something For Ya" with no success.

I found the DJ Hero mixes and another mix but was the OG version ever available beyond that? I found Megaupload links but alas they no longer work. So I'd really appreciate it if someone could hook me up with an MP3. I want to hear those Yauch verses that didn't make the cut. Thanks! :o

[pshabi]

His second and third verses. Yup.

D changed some lyrics too.
