Swiss exclusivity

Pioneering. The word is often overused, but how else to describe Massive Attack’s career? Fusing the rhythmic urgency of hip-hop, the sensitivity of soul and the haunting samples of dub reggae, their debut album Blues Lines crystallised a hybrid soundtrack of a time and place: the Bristol underground scene of the 1990s. Over the years, the trip-hop band has established itself as an avant-garde laboratory, collaborating with a host of vocalists including Horace Andy, Damon Albarn and Young Fathers. Four years after the Ritual Spirit EP, which marked the return of Tricky and a video starring actress Cate Blanchett, the group released three tracks, available only on Youtube, in 2020. As committed and topical as ever, Massive Attack is finally back on stage in Europe.
