Beastie Boys reveal album title

The Beastie Boys have revealed that their new album is called ‘The Mix Up.’

The seminal rap outfit say that the album is markedly different from their previous effort, exploring rock avenues and using instruments rather than samples.

Mike D from the outfit said: "We play instruments on the whole album, as opposed to sampling. There's more rock on there. If you know us you can trace the influences and they're no completely surprising. Someone who listens to us casually might think 'What the hell are these guys doing?'”
