Hear Beastie Boys' Mike D's New Album 'Thank You'

08-28-2026

(NLM) Following months of anticipation punctuated by multiple critically acclaimed single releases and incendiary live shows "embodied with the punk energy that led to his band's early breakthrough" (ROLLING STONE), Thank You, the eagerly awaited debut album from Mike D 5D, is released today, August 28, via Capitol Records.

Featuring "Make It Stop," the arrival of Thank You has been advanced by "Crypto"-"a searing, lo-fi blast of analog synthesizer noise and smashed industrial beats" (THE NEW YORK TIMES), the "genre-defying banger" (GLIDE) "Switch Up," "the classic, bombastic, boisterously energetic" (OKAYPLAYER) "What We Got," and the "buzzy, pensive, breakbeat-powered wall of acid rock" (RELIX) that is "True Colors." The album is comprised of 13 servings of sonically inventive post-electronic grooves and hypnotic hooks that find Mike D's unmistakable voice leading the listener through an aural playground that defies categorization.

Additionally, the Mike D 5D touring band - featuring Mike's sons Skyler and Davis Diamond, Eddie Ruscha, Will Graefe and Milo Ruscha - will return to North American stages with a sold out show at August 30 at Boston's Royale - just two days after Thank You's release - kicking off an itinerary featuring sold out stops in Santa Cruz CA, Washington DC and Asheville NC, headline dates from Los Angeles, Chicago and New York to the Pacific Northwest, Canada and beyond, an appearance at the Portola Music Festival in San Francisco and many more.
