Advantages: contains one of the most beautiful songs ever written Disadvantages: the rest pales in comparison
This album I bought purely because it contained my all time fave track, teardrop. As a fan of female vocalists I initially felt that the rest of the album was not for me, but on listening to it as a progression of tracks I have come to find that it has grown on me. however, I am still personally drawn to the female vocals on tracks such as 'Angel'. 'Inertia creeps' is a well written and musically excellent track as it does just what its title expresses, ... ...in mind of the black beetle on the cover..eeugh
I still think that this CD is worth buying just for 'teardrop' though, as it shines like the light reflected from such beyond the rest of the music contained here. 'teardrop' can melt your heart, the vocal style so light and airy it breezes through your mind stirring the notions of desire for a love as transient as rain, as lasting yet refreshing and cathartic as the moment tears evaporate in the heat ...
Advantages: Sound design. Interesting soundscapes. Sinead O'Connor. Disadvantages: Melodic content non existent. Slightly dodgy production in areas.
Where are the tunes guys? What happened to the catchy riffs that made your songs instantly recognisable?
There are more questions than answers on this album - the most pressing being - 'What has happened to Massive Attack'
Massive Attack's albums are great listening experiences (before this one) - in particular Mezzanine. And their singles (before the singles from this album) were very memorable - most noticeably Teardrop - from Mezzanine.
On ... ...sounds so 'samey'. Massive Attack are great at creating soundscapes - and that is something they have achieved very well on this album as well. The problem with this album - is that there is not a lot on top of those soundscapes - it's all very well doing sound design - but you have to have something that interest the ears - otherwise this music might as well be lounge music.
The first single from this album that was released ' Special Cases' is ...
Advantages: Floating singing, great support, tunes you can get involved with Disadvantages: Lyrics still not amazing
...won't be disappointed either. Although Protection is less electronic than their next album, it still leans more towards drum-and-bass than anything else (apart from trip-hop, of course). Be prepared for more lyrics, however, and tunes more like 'Teardrop' than 'Angel'. I wouldn't rate this above or below the other MA albums, because all three are a necessary progression and each good in their own way. Buy them all and you won't be disappointed. ...
...fan of FAT BOY SLIM!
YOU'VE COME A LONG WAY BABY - will be a classic album for years to come! And a must have for any ones music collection!! This should be on everyone's i-pod! This is in a league of its own and is a masterpiece!!!!! What more can I say!!!! A couple of weak tracks but all in all A+++++++++++ As its been out for a good few years now you can pick it up at some good prices on the net. A+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + ...
..."The Brainwasher" does exactly what it says on the tin. But not all the songs are Hardcore. If you just want to relax, songs like "Emotion" or "Make Love" is just the cup of tea for you.
Whether your Human or Robot this is a great album of choice. ...
