Massive Attack - Mezzanine

PolarityMan

What an album! Also if you did a version bringing the guitars to the front of the mix and heavying up the drums I reckon you could make a post rock version of the whole album pretty easily.

One of my favourite albums of all time. A masterpiece, IMHO.

PolarityMan

Yeah I love it, some really really menacing, paranoid feeling tunes on there.

Strong album

Total agreement. Soundtracked a very cool part of my life when I left home and went to Art college "studying" music. Listened to it again this week after another of our agreed likes; Around The Fur.

Thanks for the reminder.  Not played it in years. 
Just found it on Spotify along with some remixes which could be worth a listen.

Spectacularly good.

In my head it still is the 90s.

I love Mezzanine. Its incredible.

Also, any excuse to post this. Its astounding, and in my opinion very different to the usual "flash acoustic guitar" covers you get. I love it.

Will totally check that out but baby is asleep right now and headphones are at work. I did demo up a metal version of teardrop but havent convinced the whole band yet.

I really wanna do either angel or inertia creeps though but doubt theyre well known enough to fly.

I think someone else shared it either here or at MusicRadar. Its great, isn't it?

Absolutely fantastic mate.

Sounds daft but always makes me want to grow my nails to be able to get that tone, but then the reality of growing nails sets in.

Anyone see the Abbey Road session that was shown a fortnight or so ago - featured several Mezzanine tracks? Sounded seriously good......Massive Attack - Live From Abbey Road on Vimeo
