Can you imagine that for me - excluding the crap from 2004 - Ill Communication is "the least good"? Still nice, but too standard Rap to be Beastie Boys. In the end, the best tracks from that album are pure Rap (for me: Do It, Get It Together, Sure Shot, Alright Hear This), and after three mega innovative albums to come out in '94 (a year with 200 fabulous Rap albums, really two hundred) with that one felt a bit underwhelming. Nonetheless, it’s “officially recognized” as the BB album preferred by rockers. Everything adds up.

But it's not exactly funk. The nice thing is that you can rap over it if you want. They can't, but if you give it to Redman, he could make a mess out of this stuff. You can sample funk, sure, but you can't rap over it with ease. Taken as an instrumental and only instrumental, yes, it's worth little, but for those who are used to buying rap singles with track 1 standard song, track 2 a cappella, track 3 just the beat and listening to them comfortably and happily, it's a great record. The only two tracks that I really think are good are "In 3's" from Check Your Head and "Instant Death" from Hello Nasty. Those are pieces that can stand on their own; the rest are mostly rap beats.

<< after certain mistakes they made in the past. >> But what mistakes? They messed up a record because their main "musician" quit music. Stop. You don't understand shit about rap, you don't know shit, you wouldn't recognize an mc - one who is one - without someone telling you their name... and you talk about mistakes. Then, my god, the Beastie Boys? Give me a break, avoid it. Maybe you can say "I didn't like their albums," but realize that your opinion, in such "matters," is worth less than zero. To be honest, it’s worth less than zero in every field. /// Ghemison, "The In Sound From Way Out" was a greatest hits of - only instrumental - pieces already released on Check Your Head & Ill Communication, the coordinates are still there, but you can tell that these are patched-together tracks. Here, since all the tracks are unreleased, there's more cohesion and it's more enjoyable to listen to. Or maybe, TISFWO, I’ve always seen it poorly because I already knew the tracks, I wouldn’t know. /// << now it seems they're preparing a remix version with the addition of vocal parts >> I don't see that as a good thing at all, in fact, I see it as a really bad idea. /// <<< I think you're making a huge mistake... >>> ...naaahhh...

Brother & Magnet I haven't heard yet, but from this last month I really liked: DOWN (fantastic), Witchcraft, Causa Sui, and of course OM. Big Business wasn't bad either. A somewhat slow summer, but then again a lot of stuff came out at the beginning of the year (Clutch, Trouble, Minsk, Solace, Middian, Arboretum, Assemble Head in..., Giant Brain, Titan, etc. etc. etc.)

I'm very good friends with El Thule from Bergamo; the next time they come to Italy, I should be able to see them live. From what I've heard, they improve quite a bit from the album. PS: the new one from OM, my goodness.

Because they are under Leaf Hound, which is indeed Japanese. Even Witchcraft has come under them for the new record (in addition to various Japanese bands like Church Of Misery), and on top of that, they should start with remastered reissues, the first one being Tumuli Shoomarom by Acrimony, and they did an excellent job. It's just that shipping from Japan is expensive, what a shame.
