Massive Attack "100th Window"
FORMAT | Double LP
Mezzanine, the third full-length release from Massive Attack, is a taste of the future of pop music—a future where precisely engineered events can be seamlessly partnered with the subtle complexities of a human voice. This time they take the union further, moving it into a darker space in which the individual elements become less discernable. Guest vocalists are Sara Jay, Horace Andy (who also appeared on their debut), and Elizabeth Fraser (of Cocteau Twins), whose amazingly articulate and distinctive voice works so very well with the music of Massive Attack.
The Super Deluxe Edition 21st anniversary reissue triple LP and double CD versions feature the original album re-mastered + an album of previously unreleased dub remixes by the Mad Professor. Widely hailed as their masterpiece, Mezzanine saw the band move away from the ‘trip-hop’ sound they had helped define to embrace rock and electronica. Mezzanine was remastered by Tim Young at Metropolis who has worked with the band for over twenty years. The Mad Professor remixes were originally intended to be released on a remix album.
