Massive Attack
Massive Attack return with the Splitting the Atom EP, a taste of what is to come on their much-anticipated forthcoming album. The band's current tour brings them to Milan's Palasharp.
Massive Attack emerged from Bristol in the late Eighties with a hypnotic sound influenced by soul, hip-hop and dub. The group released the single, Unfinished Sympathy, prior to the release of their classic 1991 debut album, Blue Lines. That album featured rapping by Tricky, soon to become a performer in his own right.
Subsequent guest vocalists have included Tracey Thorn, Elizabeth Frazer and Sinead O'Connor. Reggae singer Horace Andy remains a regular collaborator.
The band's 1998 album, Mezzanine, was a tour de force that took their claustrophobic productions to darker depths, with heavy dub basslines and pile-driving rhythms. Five years later, 100th Window mined similar sonic territory.
