Ananova:

The Beastie Boys say they will release their first studio album for five years this summer.

Adam Yauch and Mike D said the follow up to 1998's Hello Nasty would be "all hip-hop".

But Mike D told the BBC: "This record is all hip-hop. We've been working for a little while in a secret location, but there's light at the end of the tunnel and we're mixing now so its almost complete.

"The record that we're making is like a hip-hop record, but that doesn't mean we're only checking for hip-hop right now. Everything we like, that's cool, is going to enter the arena."

Mike D said they were recording the album in their home town of New York but said it had a British influence too.

"We actually have a British song on our album," he said. "You're gonna have to wait and see - just leave it at that. We'll unleash it on you, but it's a very British-centric - whatever you'd call it - type of song."
