About the Book

El libro definitivo sobre Beastie Boys.

Todo lo que querías saber sobre la icónica banda neoyorkina.

Fundada en Nueva York en 1981, Beastie Boys se abrió paso hasta llegar a lo más alto del hip hop. Este monumental libro revela por primera vez su historia, en palabras de la banda. Horovitz y Diamond nos ofrecen una multitud de relatos hilarantes sobre los cambios de estilo del grupo, sus colaboraciones o la creación de su álbum debut, que se convirtió en el primer disco de hip hop en alcanzar el número uno.

Durante más de treinta años, Beastie Boys ha tenido una influencia irrefutable en la cultura popular, un influjo que persiste todavía hoy. Tan peculiar y ecléctico como la banda, este libro, planteado también como un homenaje a Adam Yauch (MCA), el tercer miembro de la banda, fallecido en 2012, supone una vuelta de tuerca a las clásicas memorias musicales: aquí el lector encontrará desde insólitas fotos hasta ilustraciones originales o cartas manuscritas.

Este volumen recoge, además, impresiones de personalidades como Amy Poehler, Wes Anderson o Colson Whitehead.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - A panoramic experience that tells the story of Beastie Boys, a book as unique as the band itself--by band members ADROCK and Mike D, with contributions from Amy Poehler, Colson Whitehead, Wes Anderson, Luc Sante, and more.

The inspiration for the Emmy-nominated Apple TV+ "live documentary" Beastie Boys Story, directed by Spike Jonze

NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY Rolling Stone - The Guardian - Paste

Formed as a New York City hardcore band in 1981, Beastie Boys struck an unlikely path to global hip hop superstardom. Here is their story, told for the first time in the words of the band. Adam "ADROCK" Horovitz and Michael "Mike D" Diamond offer revealing and very funny accounts of their transition from teenage punks to budding rappers; their early collaboration with Russell Simmons and Rick Rubin; the debut album that became the first hip hop record ever to hit #1, Licensed to Ill--and the album's messy fallout as the band broke with Def Jam; their move to Los Angeles and rebirth with the genre-defying masterpiece Paul's Boutique; their evolution as musicians and social activists over the course of the classic albums Check Your Head, Ill Communication, and Hello Nasty and the Tibetan Freedom Concert benefits conceived by the late Adam "MCA" Yauch; and more. For more than thirty years, this band has had an inescapable and indelible influence on popular culture.

With a style as distinctive and eclectic as a Beastie Boys album, Beastie Boys Book upends the typical music memoir. Alongside the band narrative you will find rare photos, original illustrations, a cookbook by chef Roy Choi, a graphic novel, a map of Beastie Boys' New York, mixtape playlists, pieces by guest contributors, and many more surprises.

Praise for Beastie Boys Book

"A fascinating, generous book with portraits and detail that float by in bursts of color . . . As with [the band's] records, the book's structure is a lyrical three-man weave. . . . Diamond's voice is lapidary, droll. Horovitz comes on like a borscht belt comedian, but beneath that he is urgent, incredulous, kind of vulnerable. . . . Friendship is the book's subject as much as music, fame and New York."--The New York Times Book Review
