Hello Nasty

The sonic adventures alone make the album noteworthy, but what makes it remarkable is how it looks to the future by looking to the past.

The Beastie Boys can still beautifully sponge up the musical zeitgeist. Hello Nasty lays a thick roll of Bounty over the juicy happenings of electronic music and wrings the wetness into their own credo. Echoes of Bjork, Tricky, Massive Attack, and the Chemical Brothers can be heard throughout.
