Looking Down The Barrel of a Gun is excellent - but the whole damn album is excellent. There isn't one weak spot. And for the record, the album would not be the same if 5 Piece Chicken Dinner didn't serve as the transition from Hey Ladies to this song.
I would say that it's not only the Beastie Boys' crowning achievement but also the Dust Brothers. I believe Miles Davis was quoted as saying he never tired of listening to Paul's Boutique.
