Beastie Boys by Spike Jonze

If you’re a fan of the legendary Beastie Boys, this book by Academy Award-winning film director and photographer Spike Jonze is a must because it captures the start, rise, and heyday of Michael “Mike D” Diamond Adam “Ad-Rock” Horovitz, and Adam “MCA” Yauch who passed away in 2012. The bond between Jonze and the Beastie Boys was forged in 1993 and has lasted throughout both of their burgeoning careers that have spanned a quarter of a century. The book includes numerous personal photos of the trio from Jonze’s own collection, as well as new writing by the remaining members. Candid real-life shots of the Beastie Boys directly from the the lens of Spike Jonze are what make the book special, with the undercurrent of a friendship that’s more than just skin deep. You can pre-order the book now for release on March 17th.
