More or less familiar with their music. Beastie Boys, almost everyone admits their part “Sabotage”, already from the first seconds, both in sound and visual terms.
We are talking (also) about the video clip of the track from “Bad communication” producer Spike Jonze and for a few minutes made the Beastie Boys the heroes of a 70s crime film, with the characteristic short-sleeve shirts and mustaches – blockbusters of that era.
For those who can’t get enough of watching the Beastie Boys on this version, now Super 7 makes them figures. So New Yorkers fans will soon be able to get Ad Rock, MCA and Mike D figurines, faithful to the image that the three members of the Beastie Boys wore in the “Sabotage” video.
The video for “Sabotage” remains one of the most recognizable of the 90s. Yes Yes MTV Video Music Awards from 1994 suspended 5 nominations. Then he might not have won a single one, but to restore order 2009 received, albeit belatedly, an award in the category “Best Video (which should have won Moonman)”.
The impact of the video doesn’t end there. OUR Danny Boyle admitted that for his opening sequence “On the needle” was inspired by the music video for “Sabotage”, while the comedian Amy Poehler commented that without him “there would be no host, Wes Anderson, Lonely Island and Adult Swim.”
