Massive Attack (electronic, alternative, funk, albums, Radiohead)

Sneer · 04-02-2005, 07:12 AM

didnt quite know whether to place this in the electronic forum, hip hop forum or this one so i went with the alternative. one of the most important bands of the last decade for me. got 3 of their albums and mezzanine is by far my favourite- a classic. songs like teardrop, angel, inertia creeps and rising son are just class. up there with radiohead to me. so, your opinions on massive attack?!

They rule - have all the albums!!!! mint

cant get enough - they are from Bristol and i have met them enjoyied a doobie or 2 with them they are the nicest peeps u could meet. shame they had o split due to inconsolrable differences.

Probably THE best band of the last 15 years.

3D should call it a day though , 100th Window was an embarresment

i thought blue lines was a bit overrated too. protection is up there with mezzanine.

I guess it`s easy to say Blue Lines is overrated , but you have to understand at the time it was totally new & different to what anybody else was doing.
I would say that is one of the reasons it`s rated so highly.

point well made, but compared to their other material, i just dont think it reaches that level- bar unfinished symphony of course.

man next door is just perfection.
