AMAZON'S ILL DISCUSSION WITH THE BEASTIE BOYS

Amazon Music hosted a private roundtable discussion with Michael Diamond and Adam Horovitz of the iconic Beastie Boys in Austin. Interviewed by Amazon Music's Head of Editorial Nathan Brackett, the band discussed their landmark album, Ill Communication, which celebrates its 25th anniversary in May.

Beastie fans and Amazon Music listeners will be able to experience a full suite of audio and video content of the interview later this spring, coinciding with the anniversary of the album.

In addition to the roundtable, Brackett also moderated a SXSW keynote discussion with Horovitz and Diamond Friday morning, where they announced new book tour dates in April, collaborating with Spike Jonze to document the events.

Watch a sneak peek of the Amazon roundtable below.
