June 25th will be the release date for Beastie Boys seventh studio album, The Mix-Up, due on Capitol Records. Check out two tracks, Off The Grid and The Rat Cage, from the album here on contactmusic.com!

The Mix-Up is The Beastie Boys' (Mike 'Mike D' Diamond, Adam 'MCA' Yauch and Adam 'Adrock' Horovitz) first-ever full album of all-new instrumental material. The follow-up to 2004's To The 5 Boroughs, The Mix-Up features Diamond, Horovitz and Yauch back on drums, guitar and bass, with able assistance from Keyboard Money Mark and percussionist Alfredo Ortiz, on 12 brand new wordless, sample-less, scratchless originals. Sure to please fans of the instrumental cuts from Check Your Head and Ill Communication and the cult hit compilation album made up largely of those tracks, The In Sound From Way Out!, The Mix-Up finds NYC's favorite sons drawing on one of their arsenal's primary strengths and pushing it into bold new directions.

Beastie Boys will kick off a summer's worth of worldwide touring May 26 & 27 with two sets at the Sasquatch! Festival at the Gorge in Washington State. The band will be playing at several European festivals throughout June and July, including Live Earth at Wembley Stadium on July 7 along with a show on September 4 at Brixton, London.
