been listening to some paul's boutique demos. "full clout" is kind of amazing, an early version of "shake your rump" and apparently an indulgence of the dust bros' desire to strip their tracks down to make them suitable for rapping over. a big licensed to ill style beat dominates, it's like the missing link between the first and second album. and it's always weird to hear all the early alternate lyrics on something so ingrained. early "car thief" lyrics are hilar too, MCA: "my dick is a tree trunk"

the fact that so many ppl on ILX live on that wide age 28 to age 35 grey zone/gulf between Gen X and Gen Y makes these conversations excruciating

yeah, it's a pretty rough ride, but I will say a lot of those songs sounded way better on a live performance from some MTV show called $2 bill that aired when the album came out

still not heard anything on TT5B worth voting for. Hell, if you asked me to remember the last song I don't think I could do it. So generic. Such a drop-off.
― Thoughts? You must have loads. (a hoy hoy), Thursday, 10 May 2012 20:06 (twelve years ago) link
ok the beat to An Open Letter to NYC is kinda fly.
I think crawlspace is the only decent track on there and it'd be 2nd tier on any other beasties alb

Best thing about TT5B by far was the CD packaging.

TT5B isn't bad but the production is so monochrome.

no punk songs on hello nasty.
That’s because Aglio E Olio, which had nine punk songs* on it, had come out a few months earlier
* and a lounge cover of Light My Fire with Miho Hatori on vocals on Side D of the double 7”
isn't 33% god purely the dust brothers work?
It’s definitely NOT any of the Shake Your Rump demos – seems not improbable that 33% God and Dis Yourself In ’89 were done in collaboration with the Beasties, who did get super-into sourcing samples for the album.
one of the guys they were hanging out with on the back of IC
Those are the members of the band, dude. Even if you don’t recognise Mark or Hurricane (!), AWOL has his name on his hat.
Open Letter is 90% Sonic Reducer by the Dead Boys. The Rub N Tug remix is probably the second-best thing related to Five Boroughs (Letterman performance of Ch-Check It Out is best, Just Blaze remix of Ch-Check is third.)

re: that beastiemixes site, I spent yesterday listening to bootlegs of bsides and rare material and remixes and such. this morning, i discovered that they have a set of "sample sources" comps for each of the albums. super-informative.
