I maintain no band has aged quite as poorly as the Beastie Boys.

[Starsky]

I could buy that


I still Enjoy Paul’s Boutique, Check your head and Licensed to ill…


I think when a band is ubiquitous and defines a decade like the Beastie Boys in the 1990s - music, fashion and culture-it becomes hard to age well.

86-96
things before and after this period...meh
you're never going to win Jules over on this one, I think they gave him a wedgie in junior high and he's still holding that grudge

but you missed The In Sound from Way Out! (yes just a compilation, but a great listen nonetheless) and Ill Communication

I'm a broken record on this...but this Audio book was top 5 I've listened to

I would say Band of Horses. Awful band.

I always get them mixed up

I meant Ill Communication!

I am borderline on Licensed to ill

One wonders if Yauch had lived would they have managed to reinvent themselves… seems unlikely but not impossible…

hard to say, they definitely had a whole decade of mediocre music after 96
I'd like to think they would have...

[Starsky]

Hello nasty has to be amongst the albums that most disappointed me… the wait from Ill Communication felt interminable and then Intergalactic…ugh


I rank it with Wild Mood Swings, Republic

Check.

[Starsky]

Don’t try to stop it!!

yikes that is a horrible song, I want those 3 mins back, I need to speak to the manager

[Justin Tonation]

Liked it in its day. Came across it when I had a radio show in the early 00s and put it on. Hard cringe.

Check.

Aged poorly implies it wasn’t gauche from day one but is now. Not the case with … whatever that is.

[Justin Tonation]

And the Beasties weren't as gauche as they wanted to be?
