This is a bootleg of sorts, as they recorded and released this record before getting permission to use the sample! They were never able to reach an agreement to officially release it, even years later.
I never knew they didnt have permission to use the sample! Naughty naughty very naughty 🤣. Awesome track, but what else do you expect from the beasties!
I really enjoy their sound, and the fact they didn't take themselves too seriously!
Here's a quote from the Wikipedia article on the single, I thought their response sounded exactly like they talked in interviews! 😂 I can literally hear Ad-Rock's voice as I read it.
The track contains samples from the AC/DC song "Back in Black", which was used without obtaining legal permission, causing the record to be withdrawn. When the group planned to include the out-of-print song on their 1999 compilation, Beastie Boys Anthology: The Sounds of Science, AC/DC refused to clear the sample. Mike D spoke to AC/DC's Malcolm Young personally on the phone when their lawyers refused to clear the sample, and later said that "AC/DC could not get with the sample concept. They were just like, 'Nothing against you guys, but we just don't endorse sampling.'" Ad-Rock then added, "So we told them that we don't endorse people playing guitars."
That's really cool. The symetria song kinda reminds me of, "if pink Floyd had more modern influences" it's got that kinda feel to it for me. Really cool. Amazing suggestion cheers Roll 👊
