Rolling Stone - 5/13/99, p.54
Included in Rolling Stone's "Essential Recordings of the 90's."Rolling Stone - 6/2/94, p.68
4 Stars - Excellent - "...Their mission remains intact: to explore the unifying threads between hip-hop and punk, taking their basic elements--the scratch of a needle across a vinyl groove, a pounding snare-bass thump, the crunch of a power chord--and slicing them up with a ginsu knife...."Spin - 12/94, p.78
Ranked #19 in Spin's list of the '20 Best Albums Of '94' - "...spice their trademark Toucan-Sam style wise-cracking with jazz samples....and Meters-meets-Santana instrumental chillouts, while 'Sabotage' is flat-out the best hard rock song of the year..."Entertainment Weekly - 6/3/94, p.54
"...it's the most tantalizing ear candy in years, the incessantly inventive sound of brats dismantling pop and trying to reassemble it in their own ingeniously klutzy ways....ILL COMMUNICATION is a cacophony of sleazy wah-wah guitars, voices screaming out from alleys behind buildings, and other joyful chaos, and the Beasties revel in it like kids in a crammed, smelly playground...." - Rating: BQ - 12/99, p.82
Included in Q Magazine's "90 Best Albums Of The 1990s."Option - 8/94, pp.91-92
"...In recent years they've managed to hit new heights of musical sophistication without ever compromising the geekoid charm that is at the heart of their cool..."Village Voice (3/94, p.5) - Ranked #2 in the Village Voice's 1993 Pazz & Jop Critics Poll.
Village Voice (2/28/95) - Ranked #15 in the Village Voice's 1994 Pazz & Jop Critics Poll.
Billboard (p.29) - "[E]verything -- lyrics, samples and production -- locks seamlessly, giving rise to the group's most mature and satisfying album."
Q (Magazine) - p.134
4 stars out of 5 -- "[A] mix of hard-edged funk, punk thrash and noodling instrumentals, but with tentative signs of maturity..."Mojo (Publisher) - p.60
Ranked #54 in Mojo's "100 Modern Classics" -- "Swapping their metal-thieving brat-rap for a most hyperactively eclectic maturity..."NME (Magazine) - 12/24/94, p.22
Ranked #3 in NME's list of the 'Top 50 Albums Of 1994.'NME (Magazine) - 5/28/94, p.35
8 - Excellent - "...ILL COMMUNICATION is a deliberately positive noise that encourages us to start taking responsibility for a change..."Pitchfork (Website) - "ILL COMMUNICATION is the album that let them infuse their turn towards sincerity with a renewed sense of playfulness, solidifying their transition from the gleefully exaggerated bad-boy anarchists of their first two albums to a trio of (slightly) more mature, trend-setting enthusiasts."
