Some Praise for Massive Attack=B9s Heliogland:

=A0=B3pure genius from the minds of Grantley Marshall and Robert Del Naja:
creepy and danceable.=B2 =AD Rolling Stone
=B3It still warms the blood to hear those trip-hop synths roll on the
slow-burning "Flat of the Blade" (with some acid loops thrown in for good
measure), but Massive Attack's arsenal has expanded and the resulting
onslaught is nothing short of brilliant..=B2 =AD Billboard
=B3Much of =8CHeligoland=B9 works like this =AD a dour, glitch intro of impeccable
atmospherics implacably winds its way into something panoramic and
exhilarating.=B2 =AD LA Times
=B3Palpable dread slithers through the trip-hop collective=B9s outing, populate=
d
by an impressive array
of guest vocalists... They give the gloomy grooves and chilled beats a
heartbeat but also step to Massive Attack=B9s otherworldly sonics with
enticingly haunted performances.=B2 =ADUSA Today
=20
=B3A Massive Attack song seems to have a narrative independent of its lyric a=
s
an introductory statement is made, then expanded and transformed until it
builds to a satisfying conclusion.=B2 =AD Wall Street Journal
=20
=B3For all the disk=B9s action, =8CHeligoland=B9 still prizes the minimalism that
always made Massive Attack seem so cool. But by updating that approach so
inventively, they=B9ve found a whole new way to freak us out.=B2 =AD New York
Daily News
=20
=B3In Massive Attack=B9s world, =B3Heligoland=B2 is as close to cheerful as it gets=
,
and, once your ears adjust, you can hear a deliberate kind of celebration
winding through the music. There are no fast numbers, though. Plenty of
bands can do that.=B2 =AD The New Yorker
