Beastie Boys to re-issue 'Root Down' EP
Beastie Boys are going to re-issue their live/remix EP Root Down on vinyl. The last vinyl pressing was during the original 1995 release. The CD has been out of print since the same time, aside from a limited 2005 Japanese pressing and a few other limited runs aimed at budget markets over the years. The new vinyl release is pressed on 180 gram vinyl and keeps the original track list. It's out October 4, 2019.
The band is also re-pressing Pauls Boutique, To the 5 boroughs, and Ill Communication, each which have been reissued in various formats over the past few years.
