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.

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. --Paul Clark

Bought this cd a LONG time ago. Can't really remember anything about the delivery experience. The album is pretty cool.

It is a music from the outer space-both calm and different from either usual hard-beat tunes and folk melodies.
Simply pleasure.
