Beastie Boys - The Mix-Up
I'm just giving it my first listen tonight and I'm really digging it so far. I was disappointed when I first heard their new album was going to be all instrumental, but I'm very impressed so far!

Re: Beastie Boys - The Mix-Up
Matty, one criticism I have of the Beasties is that they have all evolved very little musically since Paul's Boutique. How would you say this album compares to their other instrumental stuff?

Re: Beastie Boys - The Mix-Up
2 thumbs up so far. Is it totally different from their past instrumental stuff? No, but I think they have evolved to a degree. It sound fresh, but it's still clearly the Beastie Boys. If you liked their past instrumental stuff, this is right up your alley.

Re: Beastie Boys - The Mix-Up
The other weekend I was talking to this 19 year old girl and she had never heard of Bell Biv Devoe. I said, what ABC, Tony Toni Tone, Boyz II Men? None of them. I wanted to cry.

Re: Beastie Boys - The Mix-Up
I am positive the majority of people have heard Poison by Bell Biv DeVoe, it's just that they may not know who made that song.

Re: Beastie Boys - The Mix-Up
Beastie Boys were big enough that anyone who even tacitly listens to music and is under the age of say 65 should have heard of them. You may have no idea what they sing or how they sound but the name ought to ring a bell. It always astounds me when someone has totally whiffed on a pop culture icon like this.
