The Beastie Boys continue one of the most stellar careers in hip hop with the release of Hot Sauce Committee, Pt. 2, for some reason released before Hot Sauce Committee, Pt. 1. That a band that's been around for as long as Mike D, Ad-Rock and MCA have to still be releasing relevant music is some achievement considering the dross some of their contemporaries (yes you, Snoop Dogg) put out these days, but Beastie Boys make it sound easy. This is like the soundtrack to the best party ever - it is inventive, irreverent, and most of all immense fun. They race out of the gate with the brilliant Make Some Noise and don't let up until the end of the last track, The Lisa Lisa/Full Force Routine. Absolutely fantastic.
Rating: 9/10
