[@TheOneTrueChris]

Out of left field here, but "Angel" was used in an episode of "The West Wing" in a long scene depicting an impending kidnappping, and it was a perfect choice, for the factors you mentioned -- menace, building tension. Watching the scene, you don't know what's about to happen, but because of the music, you know it's something big and dangerous.

[@nfbuckeye]

@@TheOneTrueChris It was also used to great effect in a 2000 movie called "Go" that was really underrated. Guy Ritchie's "Snatch" as well.

[@gigistephens4633]

I've been saying for awhile now I think music is digressing, but not exactly. We have plenty of bands/musicians putting out highly futuristic amazing music, it just it lacks a certain vibe that really keeps you from coming back over and over in the way a Massive Attack or Portishead song does for you.

[@pipinfresh]

This album was the anthem of the 90s for so many people here in the UK. Massive Attack and Portishead are national treasures here.

[@jeSuisbar]

I play this music. Not many people know about them in America. It’s a good thing because Americans overplay shit.

to me, as a metal head, in my late teens, and being exclusive and not tolerant of any other type of music at that period in my life, when I first heard this, it just made me shut up.

First time I saw Massive Attack live was on 98’ Mezzanine European Album tour in Graz, Austria. They played in an ice hockey hall and performed an extended version of the whole album from A to Z plus a few older songs at the end. When the bass kicks in at the beginning of Angel, the first song on the album, it started snowing inside the hall. It was not snow but the paint that was peeling off the ceiling of the hall because of the massive vibration of the Bassline sound. It was pure magic. ❤

[@mdwm1981]

This song is a master class on how to build tension in a song to an absolute climax and then back to the quiet brooding tension. The official music video adds so much to the experience as well and its very worth checking it out if you havent seen it

This is the last track I expected to see on this channel - one of the greatest albums of all time, never mind trip hop. A seminal masterpiece. Excited for this new chapter you guys are starting! Unfinished Sympathy, one of their earlier tracks is incredible. Still sounds futuristic over 30 years after it's release.

[@notmyname4261]

The original video to Unfinished Sympathy is superb.

[@TomatoFettuccini]

"Still sounds futuristic over 30 years after it's release." Experimental? Yes, unquestionably. Futuristic.....sadly, no. It sounded dated in the 90s and sounds even older now. The drumbeat is a canned Clyde Stubblefield beat (something which defines the early 90s hip-hop and trip-hop sound and is heard in everything from Fresh Prince to N.W.A., Boyz II Men to En Vogue, and everything in-between), the soaring vocals are pure 90s, the synths are pure 90s synth sounds. Everything about it screams "90s" at the top of its lungs. Angel on the other hand, has none of those traits and you'd be extremely hard-pressed to say when it was released.

The band was formed under such unique circumstances and a really solid array of session musicians over the years they are untouchable on originality. Mezzanine itself is just timeless and has aged like fine wine. It was innovative for the time on the tech front and held up. Once in a generation stuff. George and Ryan, you're in for a treat when you listen to this start to finish. A perfect listen.

[@ndnd2023]

This was unbelievable live. Was so loud and the bass was just levitating. Also, Grant (Daddy G) from Massive Attack used to come and buy fresh fish off a stall I worked on at St. Nicholas Market, Bristol. He slipped me a promo press only copy of 100th Window, on CD of course, about a week before it released and said 'don't give that to anyone else', with a wink.

[@the_black_arts]

You’ve stumbled across one of the greatest records ever made. I’m not exaggerating. I’d put this in the top 2 of the nineties, top 25 of all time. Mezzanine is a masterwork, full stop. Menacing, tense, dark, apocalyptic, futuristic. It’s 25 yrs old and still sounds like it’s from the future. This record deserves nothing less than a complete listen from beginning to end. As we see from your reaction, you just know immediately that you’re hearing something special. I cannot speak highly enough about it. It’s superlative by any standard.

Incredible song. Incidentally, Massive Attack would agree with you about the genre name trip hop! It’s worth noting that the area of Britain they come from is very rural. Bristol is a city but not a big one. Secondly, it has a big West Indian population so there was a lot of dub and reggae around which seeps it’s way into Massive Attack’s sound. The band also have talked about liking hip hop and film soundtracks which also you can hear in their atmospheric soundscapes. Finally, fans of Luther will know the theme song is by the band. Next up try something by Tricky or Sneaker Pimps ‘6 under’ ( Nelle Hopper remix)

Massive Attack, Tricky, Topley-Bird and Portishead are timeless. Played this to death when it came out in the 90s and still sound so almost 30 years later

[@SirWtfcharles]

First time commenter and long time watcher, this is my favorite album of all time. Every song is amazing and it still feels new 25 years later. Please do more mezzanine

[@pinhead9]

Angel is great. You should try out a song with one of the many amazing female vocalists that have featured on their tracks. Teardrop, Protection or Unfinished Sympathy.

[@frase03]

Elizabeth Fraser , Tracey Thorn and Shara Nelson, that's 3 class acts right there.

[@annakissed3226]

You do know the leader song writer of Massive Attack is a woman?

[@mattd8725]

Or Paradise Circus.

[@frase03]

@@mattd8725 Luther would agree with that.

This is one of those tracks that just never gets old, I've listened to it so many times over the decades and it just sounds fresh every damn time...that build up and release? Legendary...

[@thyop89]

It feels like is where music should he now is such a very good appraisal of Massive Attack. For some reason their music always sounds cutting edge, like something you've never heard. Sign of a timeless band. One of the very best from 90s UK. Incidentally I used to know the band's founding member Grant, really cool guy!

Like many other comments. This album "Mezzanine" is just mezmerising. Not just for trip-hop or any other subgenres, but just for music in general. Freaking masterpiece.

[@brettnfk]

Massive Attack and Portishead are two of the best representations of how creative the music scene is in my home city.

[@fatboyRAY24]

Massive Attack: Teardrop.

[@MatthewTrainer]

Masterpiece. Chills all over. Thank you.

[@MrTapatio99]

The scene in Snatch where they trash Turkish’s casino and this song plays while they walk in in slow motion is the best

Seeing that live is one of my alltime favorite concert moments. All live instruments - guitar, bass and drums. And man... when those drums kicked in you could just feel a slow building roar from the crowd as if everyone just had to really realize how absolutely fantastic the sound was. Crystal clear and perfectly balanced. And while sounding great the entire band just stood there in hoodies in massive backlight looking cool as fuck. It was spectacular.

[@thorenhoneycutt8254]

The ultimate Massive Attack banger is "safe from harm" also in the trip hop family is DJ Shadow go for "building steam with a grain of salt" love your shit fave reactors definitely getting patron specifically for lost in vegas.

[@harryosullivan9632]

Ultimate Massive Attack banger is a tough call. Got to be Unfinished Sympathy for me, specifically the Pefecto mix, but man Safe from Harm is a banger too...

[@anastasiarose4482]

I lived in Bristol for a bit though originally from London. Bristol is a city that drips music of diverse genres. There is a large Caribbean community there, especially Jamaicans. Reggae, dancehall and other elements of reggae are popular. So it makes sense it would find its way into Trip Hop Also Massive Attack and Tricky really brought the ragga and spoken word of Hip Hop. Bristol has a massive artistic, spoken word, media ting going on too. I love the place.

11:42 is the greatest moment in the history of the greatest reaction channel on KZbin.

[@z0h33y]

Been a trip hop head for over 10 years, and its great to see peoples reaction to the music. I meet a lot of people who say they've never heard the genre before, but show 'em some "Clubbed to Death" by Rob Dougan, some, "6 Underground" by Sneaker Pimps, and some, "Teardrop" by Massive Attack, and it turns out alot of people HAVE come across the genre at some point. That outta the way. You've heard Portishead, and Massive Attack (also Zero7 apparently). There's a ton of other bands/outfits, and you've heard some of the more important ones, but some of the standout ones missing are Sneaker Pimps (i suggest their songs "walking zero" or "6 underground"), and DJ Shadow (i suggest his songs "building steam with a grain of salt" or "midnight in a perfect world"). Of course i could list off dozens of others but these cover your bases.

[@zkamerman17]

You guys gotta check out inertia creeps. First song that got me into them. They are 🔥🔥🔥

[@brianjustbrian7216]

Yeeees, my first thought too!

[@nicolas.grisanti]

Moving up slowly...

[@jffullum4325]

One of my favorite band ever. I still listen to Massive Attack daily. That whole album is sick but the earlier stuff is awesome too. Karmacoma is great too.

[@megatryn]

I have never had as much chills as when I first saw Massive Attack live for the first time in '99 and this song came on. It's something about being hit by those low, rumbeling sub-bass lines you can't hear but those huge concert speakers vibrates your core.

[@anatay10]

Yep... Massive Attack will change your life. Lol. When this Album came out in 97 or 98 I think... I practically listened to nothing else... it was on heavy rotation. Well, I did listen to Tricky, Portishead and a couple others to be fair. I'm a 50 year old Black woman from Brooklyn btw. They were on another level 🔥🔥

[@tylercolby3118]

This album is a masterpiece for sure, the best song on it is probably Inertia Creeps but my favorite song on the album is Risingson. You should also check out Tricky who was actually in Massive Attack before this album and then he started doing solo albums.

[@travo85]

Yess... Risingson. I'm with you. That actually is the best song on the album. It took a while, but I came round'.

[@destroyermaker]

They would loooove Tricky

[@rebeccastarovich6079]

I want them to react to Hollow by Tricky. I was mesmerized by that song.
