Overview
The Beastie Boys have been quietly working on a new studio record, the follow-up to 2004's To The Five Boroughs. Fans in Australia could get the first taste of the B-Boys' new material when they headline next month's Good Vibrations Festival down under.
Speaking to Australian news site The Age, Mike D. joked that the new album "is actually really different.
[Fans] can expect to be disappointed, they can expect to be angry at us." He continued, slightly more seriously, "It's always hard to know [how the album will turn out]. We still have a little of a way to go. I don't want to describe it too much because whatever I say might change. We are [still] in the middle of recording it."
The Good Vibrations Festival begins in Melbourne, Australia on February 10 and winds up in Perth on February 18. The Hip-Hop and Dance music-centric festival will also include Jurassic-5 among its many acts.document.write(unescape("
