The new book on Beastie Boys will not be a quintessential memoir, former member Michael "Mike D" Diamond has said.
The vocalist-drummer said "Beastie Boys Book" is an account of his days with fellow members Ad-Rock (Adam Horovitz) and the late MCA (Adam Yauch), which will also include a cookbook, TMZ reported.
He said it will be "unlike any other music book".
According to the website, the cooking part of the book will feature contributions from chef Roy Choi and directors Wes Anderson and Spike Jonze, and actor Amy Poehler.
"Beastie Boys Book" releases October 30.
