Why I dislike the new album
Well I was listening to music on my ipod in my car and one of the new beastie's tracks came on, I changed the track immediately and realized why I dislike the new album. I like "check it out" and one other track that was released before the album, I forget it's name, but as for the rest of the album I can't stand it.
The boys have insane rhyming skills, but what I can't stand is them trying to be touchier and preachy. It just doesn't fit, the boys are close to 40, all gray haired, and looking like chemo victims. This tough guy attitude might work for younger, new audiences but I can't stand it. |

Re: Why I dislike the new album
I'd rather hear them preach about politics than hear you preach about your lame opinion.
But that's just me. |

Re: Why I dislike the new album
How many threads is this now, from someone bitching about the boys being 'preachy' or for having political lyrics? And again, from someone who signed up specifically to bitch about it...

Re: Why I dislike the new album
Admittedly, after the very first listen I felt a little let down for some reason. However, it has since grown on me big time as I realize the importance of their message and also their Inexhaustible tallent for innovation and humour.
Musically, they have minimalized the sound to the bare essence of early 80s hip hop drum machine driven beats, amalgamating snippets of their previous albums as well. Lyrically, they have matured just enough I thought, some songs can appear to be border-line preachy however, never cross that line, seemingly just enought to bite the ignorant and brainwashed on their arses. Two thumbs up from me as I await their next release, which I think will not take as long this time round. MD |

Re: Why I dislike the new album
Hi everyone,
Come on, why so much trouble about AN ALBUM?? Don't you get anything else to do?? If you don't like it, the only solution is DON T LISTEN TO IT!! It's not difficult I'm sure you can do it!! It's too political? Go buy a Steven Seagal CD (I swear I saw this!! Wouaahaha!!!) if it's too clever for you... You know what? I have a better solution, a radical one: IF YOU DON T LIKE IT THEN HEY FUCK YOU!!! Voilààààà.... Peace all over the world Julie. P.S: go to the movie to see the new Michael Moore movie Farenheit 9/11 ... P.P.S: maybe not those who don't like TT5B, it might be too political for them... and everybody knows that politic is stupid and not useful and that we don't have to care about it ;) ... but politicians rule the world for us don't forget that... |

Re: Why I dislike the new album
I'll be honest...i'm a HUGE fan and they could probably produce shit, and I'd still buy it and enjoy it.
Me and a couple friends are still waiting for them to have a show within about a 5-hour radius of us. .................................................. ........................................ This is a forum, so people are going to bitch about stuff you don't agree with. Although then again, if you don't LIKE the Beastie Boys, then maybe you should find a different forum. |

He was making fun of the nutcup that called it Intergalactic. I can't believe I'm even posting on one of these threads .. it goes against my moral fibers!! You should be ashamed too GEA!! |
Re: Why I dislike the new album
well I don't mind a message in music if it's done right. Like hello nasty had, but this is so much in your face, it's like they want their way and don't want me to think about other points of view.
The reason I'm pissed is because I've waited so long for some new beastie's and this is what I get.... |

Re: Why I dislike the new album
I like the album, but not as much as I like their other albums yet. It generally takes me a while to fully realize he genius behind albums. It took me fours years before I was able to appreciate Pink FLoyd, 5 for Sublime, 2 years for Hello Nasty. I think I just have to wait for a point at which I understand Music on some deeper level.
The reason that I am not yet impressed with the album, is also what impresses me about it. I love the fact that they are taking a pure hip hop approach to this album, it is great to hear them delving head first into hip hop, it gives me a whole new feel for the Beasties. However I miss their instrumentals that not only showed me a new side of the beasties, but also a new side of music, that I hadn't really been exposed to. Plus the instrumentals were wayyy cooler to listen to while lifted. |
Re: Why I dislike the new album
At first listen of tt5b, I was disappointed, Check it out is a killer track.
I've now listened to the album a good few times and there are only two tracks that I don't like, that's the advantage of a skip button on your deck... I don't think that this album will ever be my fave B Boy album, but it still has the stuff that makes me want to listen. Sharp lyrics, Humour and dope beats I don't care if the guys are 40 or 60 as long as they still rhyme the rhyme well. Man I'm 31 and I never Thought I 'd use 'Dope' in a sentence |
Re: Why I dislike the new album
what track was released before the album came out?

Re: Why I dislike the new album

anyways, chill pal. if it wasn't for "to the five boroughs" i wouldn't be posting 'cause i didn't know the first thing about the beastie boys before it. since purchasing it, i have purchased all the other albums and know them backwards and forwards. in my opinion, "paul's boutique" is their best cd, and part of why i like it so much is the switch offs they do. after listening to that it took away from "to the five boroughs" a little, 'cause they don't do it very much on that album. but i still love it. i'm not saying it blows or anything. |
