New Beastie Boys - The Rat Cage!
May 15 2007
From the forthcoming instrumental album The Mix Up! Seems like it’s going to be somewhere between The In/Sound from Way Out! compilation and instrumentals from Hello Nasty. Apparently an edited version, it’s a bass riff-driven, guitar jammin’ tune that sounds a bit like a part of Aesop Rock’s recent Nike mix. MP3 Hosted at Spine Magazine.
Don’t forget every day at the moment the Beasties’ Official website is streaming a different video clip with the song as the soundtrack. It’s the typical Beasties playing pageant we know and love. Somebody has compiled the video into one handy bloggable entity, so watch below.

Video
Update: Chris Culture Bully has got the sweet hookups on a live studio recording video of another new tune “Off the Grid”. Chris calls it “Caucasi-funk at its peak: a guitar that sticks its head out of the car door while doing about 65 mph down the highway leaving it just inches from shred (a funky shred, but a shred nonetheless), organ that sounds more organic than a bagel from that hippie bistro down the street from your aunt’s place called “Che Organique,” and a rhythm that simply drops for days.” Nice. Me, I’m diggin that Yauch bass sound and the return of instrumental jams for the 21st century.
Update 2: With the new site, brings new info - of utmost importance to me is that the Beasties will be performing at Electric Picnic twice! The 1st of Sept. will be a regular show while the 2nd will be the instrumental show where you can hear these songs live! OMFG, 2 Beastie Boys concerts in 2 days.

I was pretty sceptical bout the idea of an all instrumental album, (mainly cuz im a fiend for the rhymes) but this is pretty damn good. And all the advance reviews say its the bee’s knees too.
1Well after the last album, I think it might be a good thing to have an all intrumental album!
Ad Rock is the only one with a bit of POW! left. Althugh he is a good bit younger than the other two innit.
2He’s not that much younger…
and To The 5 Boroughs is a great album! And if you saw the last tour all 3 we’re giving it socks…
3To quote the boys on the sports desk - its a good album, its not a great album.
Personally I think it’s by far their worst. I am a HUGE beasties fan though, dont get me wrong - I’m shitting the bed every night in anticipation of these gigs at the picnic!
RRRRRRRRROUGHHHHHHH!!!
4It’s better than LTI….
