Description
Massive Attack - Mezzanine
Bristol's original trip-hop pioneers had, on previous albums Blue Lines and Protection, fused turntable wizardry to the warmest of soul. With Mezzanine, however, the party had ended; revisiting the murky soundscapes so favoured by former partner and fellow Bristolian Tricky.
The inter band friction created some gems; Inertia Creeps is drenched in menace, and Teardrop features the ethereal vocals of Liz Fraser of the Cocteau Twins - both of these a benchmark not just for the band, but for the trip-hop genre.
Bleak, but powerfully beautiful.
