Description of Hello Nasty:
It's been a dozen years since the Beastie Boys broke, and on Hello Nasty, they show that--though they've grown up, matured, and just gotten older--they're still in touch with the inner brat that always made them so much fun. Turns out that the brat's turned into an ace record collector with choice taste in collaborators, too. --Randy Silver
Hello Nasty Reviews:
One of the Beasties' best 
2009-10-21 - Hello Nasty has always been one of the best in the Beasties' catalog. The music is superb, and the lyrics as clever as ever. It is surpassed only by Paul's Botique, and maybe Ill Communication.
I am only giving this four stars, however, because I am not sure this new reissue is entirely necessary. The old disc sounded great, and maybe I'm not enough of an audiophile, but it seems the only thing they changed is maybe the volume. I haven't heard the bonus disc, but I never have much interest for bonus discs with three or four remixes of the same song. If you don't have Hello Nasty, go ahead and pick up this reissue, but unless you really need to hear the remixes, the upgrade may not be worth the money.
kick off your shoes and relax your socks! 
2009-09-22 - I can't add much more to the previous reviewers' glowing accolades for this phenomenal album. However, for all of you who wonder whether this reissued and remastered dual-disc version is worth the cash, let me assure you that IT ABSOLUTELY IS! This is by far the best of the recent re-releases from the Beastie Boys--from the remixes to new songs and all the tracks spanning both discs, you will not be disappointed. (Furthermore, for all of my fellow vinyl lovers, there are both standard and special edition LP sets as well, and ordering them through the BBoys' site gets you a digital download of all of these killer tracks.)
"The sound of the music drivin' you insane / You can't explain to people this type of mind frame..."
Their best ever in my humble opinion.
2009-08-17 - I have fond memories associated with this album. It's my favorite Beastie Boys release by far. Quite a masterpiece really. Still holds up after all these years.
worth the penny
2009-02-03 - beastie in this album keep it the same kinda.the beats for the raps songs are pretty good intergalatic super disco etc have a great sound to them.a small change in beat style.they put a side the funk and went to a bosa nova type sound on tracks like instant death idont know sneaking out i did enjoy this change .3 mcs 1 dj is a real treat old school hip hop flavor.buy it this is the last great album they produce the last 2 i wouldnt buy.buy the 1st 6 thats including anglio .only disapointment no rock jams like sabatoge time 4 livung the closest is remote control.
Far weaker than their previous albums 
2008-05-04 - This doesn't hold a candle to Check Your Head or Paul's Boutique. There are some decent tracks, but lyrically this was a huge slide for them. It just sounds forced and there is a lot of mediocre filler...
Buy one of those two albums first (CYH or PB), then get Ill Communication and Licensed to Ill. This album is better than 5 boroughs but thats about it...
