Earlier this year, the Beastie Boys teamed up with New York retailer Opening Ceremony on a new collaboration that reimagines their iconic album covers as concert merch. Each piece was created by an artist commissioned by Opening Ceremony – including Kim Gordon, Bill McMullen and Geoff McFetridge — who were tasked with creating "new works" based on the albums.
Filmmaker and photographer Spike Jonze — in addition to directing Beastie Boys Story and the live stage show that it was based on — recently teamed up with the band for a new photo book, Beastie Boys . The book features over 200 of Jonze's personal photographs of the trio.
