Beastie Boys are reissuing their 1998 album, Hello, Nasty, in the 4xLP box set format that debuted in 2009 before going out of print. The collection features 21 bonus tracks including rarities, remixes, and b-sides, packaged alongside the original album in an eight-panel gatefold, along with a coffeetable book–style slipcase. It’s out September 8, via UME.
