Beastie Boys Anthology. The Sounds of Science

From 1982s Pollywog Stew to 1998s Hello Nasty and this summers forthcoming To the 5 Boroughs, the Beastie Boys have pushed the boundaries of music and pop culture worldwide. Starting out as a punk band from New York City, they mutated into the first hip hop act to hit number one in the pop charts, and went back to live instrumentation, while always drawing on a wide array of musical sources - from funk to hardcore to afro-cuban jazz. Compiled by the band, this book takes readers on the journey from the beginning in the Beasties own words. Includes 2 CDs!
