Ok, this is not one of the band best tunes but after a six year hiatus it’s just good to see them making material again really. This single guest stars ‘Sasquatch’ and the band state that he is the reason for their absence as he has been keeping them in his cave. When you first listen to this track you will automatically realise that it is the Beastie Boys as they have definitely not changed their sound at all.
This track contains some great mixing, and some really cool vocals and is definitely not a bad tune – just not as good as some of the stuff that the band have done in the past. I really enjoyed listening to this one and would urge you all to check it out purely because it’s a Beastie Boys track really, but saying that I would probably urge you to check it out even if it wasn’t as it is quite a cool track. This is the first single to be taken from their ‘To The 5 Boroughs’ album and definitely gives you reason enough to go out and buy the album – it is fast, contains amazing mixing, and those legendary vocals that the band are renowned for. If you have ever been a fan of the band then you will probably want to check this one out, it’s definitely worth your while and will most probably put a smile on your face.
This is not classic Beastie Boys, but then again they never release a bad tune so you can’t really go wrong with them. On first listen I was not too sure about it, but the more I listened to it – the more I realised that this is a good track, and the band are definitely not going stale as the years go by.
