To watch 3D Del Naja explode during Atlas Air by DANCING no less was truly blissful. Usually subdued and calm, this ending to the show gave me the chills.

I don’t believe in god, but thank god that this particular set has been captured on audiovisual - and edited to perfection - so that future generations may glimpse through a window in time and awe at what great music played live can sound like.

[@JODIDO84]

This brings so much good memories...Saw them twice : in 98 in Toulouse, and in 2009 in Marseille. Without Massive Attack, the music scene would have been so different...They are simply above "Trip Hop", "Cold Electro Wave" or some others categories...One of the bands that really changed my life for sure...

[@pablosantisbon7232]

It's astonishing the number of bands of all genres they have inspired.

[@JODIDO84]

Massive Attack was a reference in the music industry...But the last album "Heligoland" didn't match "Mezzanine" for sure. It was not bad at all, but not striking though...I am wondering if the band will ever record an other album in the future...

[@JODIDO84]

+Oumayma Garess Oh really ! Cheers for the information ! I am living in the South, I will check if there is any planned date in Marseille. Tricky should be part of this new album if I remember a short subject I saw on TV 2 years ago mentionning that he will record with the band. Looking forward to hearing the stuff then !

atlas air in this live in my all time favourite.. the stage lighting + led board pattern is so beautiful, the whole thing is an art masterpiece

[@alexanderniitsoo5501]

In July 2010 Massive Attack where in the position they could sound any way they wanted to. They where truly genre transcending and progressive with tunes that evolved gently into one another. It starts out with some hardcore techno, then some progressive rock with The Leather Nuns haunting Desolation Avenue from 1985 in the outro. Beautiful trip-hop soulsong Safe from harm ends in a jam session with salutations to Sonic Youth and Rage against the machine. Traditional rhythm and harmonies from the middle east with laid back toasting follows. The last song, enter a hammond organ with disteffect, has a Doors vibe to it. You only wait for Jim Morrison to step up to the mike. The song evolves into progressive rock electronica, not unlike todays Floating Points. It´s amazing. How wide can a span of inspiration be? And yet, it has such a light touch to it.

[@alexbm]

I saw them live this same year in Brazil, and it's true, the whole scenario is a msut seen, so to film them in close ups is not the best way to feel and sense a Massive Attack concert. Anyway, it's a shame they didn't release their concerts in DVD yet. And Martina is such a great singer and such a lovely person! After the concert she came to the audience, took pictures and signed cds for us, even looking very tired after all!

[@reruntime]

the last song is simply mindblowing

[@primarkopolop]

"safe from harm" is probably one of the best musical "clones" IMO. awesome version! the original is by billy cobham, to find on his first solo-album "spectrum" from 1973 and is called "stratus". with BC played tommy bolin+ (g), jan hammer (kbds), and the unbelievable bass-riff is played by leland sklar. and - the whole album was recorded in 2 (!) days at electric lady.

[@TonyKuehler]

Everything old is new again. Safe from Harm is easily one of my favorite Massive Attack tunes. I just listened to the song Stratus on Billy Cobham's debut album... WOW, just fucking wow! Tommy Bolin was dead barely 3 years later. And Leland Sklar's bass rift is straight up out of this world.
