Massive Attack

In the organizer's words:

"Our new live show marks the most transgressive leap in the collaboration between 3D x United Visual Artists since 2003.

By reverse engineering algorithms to expose content anomalies & recursive feedback loops, we seek to provoke a dialog on the broken dream of the confident, empowered individual 'self', in the context of the global collapse of liberal democracies."

Anyone who sees music concerts primarily as moments of escape from the world will realize at a Massive Attack gig that the idea here is different. For years, Robert "3D" Del Naja and Grant "Daddy G" Marshall have been confronting their audience not only with the fantastically droning trip-hop mutant that their Bristol sound has grown into over the years, but also with compressed world events.

Massive Attack deliver something they have stood for since the early 90s: incredibly deep, pushing bass, spherical, sometimes soulful vocal parts, dark, emotional, political parts. The term trip-hop, coined at the beginning of their career, has been misleading at least since their second album "Protection" (1994), as it suggested that they were dealing with a relaxed vibe. This may have been the case with the soulful and tender "Protection", but by no means with tracks such as "Karmacoma" and "Euro Child". Their masterpiece "Mezzanine" (1998) pushed this tension a little further and gave us, for example, "Teardrop", which sends a shiver down your spine from the first click of the beat, and "Inertia Creeps", which would still be the best soundtrack for a nightmare.

At their live shows, you realize that the entire setlist is captivating. This is also due to the duo's fantastic live band and the always exciting guest singers.

You shouldn't miss the chance to see Massive Attack once again in July at the Zitadelle Spandau in Berlin.
