The drum loop is John Bonham in the intro of "When the Levee Breaks" is it not? Sampling Zeppelin makes sense because their recorded body of work is some of the most potent soil for harvesting drum loops, beats, guitar hooks, base lines, layered music, etc. It was being done well before this album, and band will do it well into the future. BEASTIE BOYS RULE!!!! CANT WAIT FOR THE NEW ALBUM
Well I think I'm losing my mind this time, this time I'm losing my mind that's right, I said I think I'm losing my mind this time, this time... I'm losing my mind.
I like the fact that they only have them in the video, the people who are actually singing and not some random half naked girl that makes me want to gag.
I am not physically attracted to white guys, it has nothing to do with the music. THAT IS WHAT I MEANT! It is a matter of personal taste, not being immature or needing to grow up. I happen to think that aside from just their music, they are pretty cool. So shut the fuck up! I am guessing that you are white.
they were a punk band first..play their own instruments,i'm pretty sure they are secure in their "whiteness"....they don't dress black...more like metal hip hop/groove.acid rock....

Some good stuff. But I understand the Beasties don't write the beats, and they ain't much at rapping. They are like Disney promoted stars -- the real talents unseen in the background
beastie boys have a lot to do with the beats dumbass! Adrock on guitar, MCA on bass, and mike D on drums, you dumbshit!!!! and speaking of beats/music listen to their latest album, purely instrumental! your so ignorent! i hate people like you!
Many years ago; came home tripping, only to find the beastie's staring out at me from my tv asking the very searching question: whatcha want? To which, in my condition, I could only reply: "huh?".
(I've since figured it out.)
However, it was an unforgettable, funny moment in time.
I agree. The key to timeless music is to stay away from politics. Yeah, some political music is good but it can really date the music, meaning it won't be relevant later in time.
Actually since I wasn't around in those times I do find it hard to really relate to the lyrics from songs during that time. Maybe it's just a problem of mine, but I do find it hard to appreciate songs that I don't understand.
Meh, well I don't mean to be a dick, but I'm gonna guess you get your political influences come from your parents if you aren't Left Wing. I say this because there is nothing about being Right Wing that can benefit someone of youth...I mean old people don't suffer when wars happen. Unions, while being far from perfect, were made to help look out for the little guy...I'd say keep an open mind and give it a few years, I still have some friends that are in their 20s and they aren't political.
Also looks like you like Tool(maybe also RATM) they are also Left Wing...well at least I know for sure that they don't agree with the current administration...if you are into enough bands that have opposing views, compared to yourself, maybe you should figure out why.
I am pretty left wing. Maybe not as much as others, like Tool and especially RATM, but I do relate to the viewpoints of those bands. But my original statement about political lyrics dating music was simply from the viewpoint that I personally find it hard to relate to music before my time that were about political issues I know nothing about, from not being there to experience it first hand. This doesn't mean I don't agree with the Beastie Boys, but it might cause it to be irrevelent later on.
