- Massive Attack is an English musical group formed in 1988 in Bristol, consisting of Robert "3D" Del Naja and Grant "Daddy G" Marshall. Their debut album Blue Lines was released in 1991, with the single "Unfinished Sympathy" reaching the charts and later being voted the 63rd greatest song of all time in a poll by NME 1998's Mezzanine, containing "Teardrop", and 2003's 100th Window charted in the UK at number 1.
Both Blue Lines and Mezzanine feature in Rolling Stone's list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.
The group has won numerous music awards throughout their career, including a Brit Award-winning Best British Dance Act, two MTV Europe Music Awards, and two Q Awards.They have released 5 studio albums that have sold over 11 million copies worldwide.
DJs Daddy G and Andrew Vowles and graffiti artist-turned-rapper Robert Del Naja met as members of partying collective The Wild Bunch. One of the first homegrown soundsystems in the UK, The Wild Bunch became dominant on the Bristol club scene in the mid-1980s.
Massive Attack started as a spin-off production trio in 1988, with the independently released song, "Any Love", sung by falsetto-voiced singer-songwriter Carlton McCarthy,and then, with considerable backing from Neneh Cherry, they signed to Circa Records in 1990 - committing to deliver six studio albums and a "best of" compilation.
Circa became a subsidiary of, and was later subsumed into, Virgin Records, which in turn was acquired by EMI. Blue Lines (1991), was co-produced by Jonny Dollar and Cameron McVey, who also became their first manager.
Geoff Barrow, who went on to form Portishead, was an intern and trainee tape operator at Bristol's Coach House studio when the album was recorded.
McVey (credited at the time as 'Booga Bear') and his wife, Neneh Cherry provided crucial financial support and in-kind assistance to the early careers of Massive Attack,
Portishead and Tricky during this period, even paying regular wages to them through their Cherry Bear Organisation.
Massive Attack used guest vocalists, interspersed with Del Naja and Marshall's (initially Tricky's) own sprechgesang stylings, on top of what became regarded as an essentially British creative sampling production; a trademark sound that fused down-tempo hip hop, soul, reggae and other eclectic references, musical and lyrical.
In the nineties, the trio became known for often not being able to easily get along with one another and working increasingly separately.
Andy Vowles (Mushroom), who had once thought of himself as the trio's musical director, acrimoniously left Massive Attack in late 1999, after an ultimatum from the other two members to end the group immediately if he did not. Despite having taken Del Naja's side in the effective firing of Vowles and then participating in a show-of-unity webcast as a duo the following year, Grant Marshall (G) had also effectively left by 2001 in that he abandoned the studio altogether. Marshall returned to a studio role in 2005, having joined the touring line-up in 2003/4 Видеоклипы
Massive Attack is one of the greatest bands of all time.
The greatest in my opinion.
one of, 100%
Yesssssssssss
You are right!!
Agree, but at least US has Trent Reznor.
My first contact with Massive Attack was when I was 14. I had snuck into a movie theater with my then girlfriend to watch The Matrix back in the summer of 1999. I had no idea who they were before that point, having grown up small in my little Maryland suburb. Then a buddy of mine brought home this bloody cool CD jewel case from NYC. The cover featured a black horned beatle set against white. Already I was intrigued and as soon as I heard Angel for the first time my imagination took to what was for me a new and exciting sound unlike anything I'd heard up to that point. Mezzanine as an album changed me. I've been listening to Massive Attack's entire discography ever since. From Blue Lines to The Spoils they've been there everytime I needed to chill, to move, to heal. When asked who my favorite band is I don't hesitate to say, Massive Attack.
That’s so fucking cool
Yeah man, I couldn't agree more, despite quite a different backstory
Massive Attack literally created an entire genre, and still don’t get enough recognition!!
One of the greatest bands of all time...my baby boy was rocked in my arms to Blue Lines and the Teardrop EP. He still adores them as do I and we listen to them every week on our family turntable. What a terrific documentary. And their live concert back in 1998 in Melbourne was incredible! I danced all night in a relatively small audience; first night out to see live music after my son's birth. Amazing return to a usual routine. Love, Love Love all of the musicians who have contributed to them.
My favorite band, and I'm from southern USA :P. There's just so much variety and quality through their discology. I stumbled on them while I was house-bound due to a medical issue and they really helped me pass the time and become more spiritually connected.
I have THE biggest crush on Daddy G, so glad to finally hear him speak!😍🥰🤩
I always bought M Attack albuns.... the only band that i never miss an album!
.......I just started listening to Massive Attack like 5 years ago after hearing a song on Pandora. Damn these cats been out since 1988? Wow! I truly missed out on a good 2 decades of these dudes...and dudette lol Good stuff though. Glad to see they have longevity.

Apple Snapple angel is fantastic song, it's an absolute epic drama story. Taking me away out from real world.
It's so strange
Thank you very very much for this! I just adore this band. Unique and pretty damn good.
17 minutes in...love it. Thank you for uploading this.
I just heard of the band recently and I am blown away by the way their sound is so unique yet so familiar. The videos bring another dimension to that sound. Love it!
this video footage is awesome, thx so much for uploading!
"Hopefully it won't be another 5 years until another album comes out" oops it was
Legendary group. Loved their music since i was a kid
Thank you very good its seeing them in the studio

I LOVE THEM they're unique just like me!!!😉😏
Massive Attack 4ever
when i heard safe from harm a damn lot of years ago on mtv when it came out i was fascinated and interessted in massives Music. I saw them 7 times Live since than, the first one in Amsterdam Paradiso in 99 and every Concert was a real happening and experience. They are a Soundtrack of my Life!
The greatest electronic band of all time
AMAZING GROUP....AND STILL 👑
OMG, the absolute BEST music, but this doc put me to f'n sleep!
In the mystic egypt tossle dangling down
The "you know" level is over 9 thousand
Genius
what year this was made??😦😦😎😎😎🌹🌹🌹..this amazing!!!
"Looking good, hanging with The Wild Bunch!" Nenah Cherry
Banksy!
i really think so...check Sounds Of The West docu @ 8:56...Banksy in color..there were very few people doing the 'blek le rat' style stencil back then...and with his exhibitions been in towns there they were playing.
You know. I never bought into the 3D/Banksy talk that everyone else is spewing. I've figured they're just good friends from being in the graffiti world together. But then I'm watching this documentary and 3D starts talking about Palestine and how they're really wanted to play there and they've really wanted to help with the efforts... and I'm just thinking back to a couple days ago where I found out Banksy opened that Walled Off Hotel out there... of course, 3D is going to be playing there. When I read that, I again was just thinking that they're good friends. But now I'm like "this interview was YEARS ago. The way he speaks about Palestine, it sounds like a very important subject to him. Could he have conveyed that importance to Banksy to make it so important to him that Banksy would open a hotel?" Part of me doesn't think so. Usually the most likely scenario is the answer. And it's more likely that 3D feels so passionately about this that he opened the hotel, not convinced Banksy to do it.
But then part of me goes back to thinking that "Banksy" is a collective, not a person, and 3D is just PART of the whole scheme.
Coral C he is banksy. Robert aka robin - robin banks - Banksy. The graffiti internationally coincides with massive attack tours
3D isn't Banksy. They do know each other but they're different people.
@@firecoral417 believe it or not, there are millions of people who care about Palestine and the slow mo genocide of the people there. Robert is not Banksy. Their art, if you care to look, is totally different and the people who know the latter laughed their arses off when a bored or desperate for a story journalist invented this tale.
Great video but wtf is up with that fucking vignette video effect when they perform Angel in the Q studio?!?!
+Adriaan du Toit so the powers that be don't take it down i guess?
🎉🎉🎉
You have massive attack from uk, you have nine inch nails from the us. Phenomenal
Who says "y'know" the most... D or G?
both of them......... definitely both
Everyone from Bristols
Tricky
Yes.
surprised jian didn't throw a left hook during this one
Where can you find the songs from this documentary? I really liked the atlas air version they had on this, but I can't seem to find it anywhere else. :'[
First you must try to find their discography on the net and then download the music you like from them with ilistentoyoutube and I hope you will find what you like
See below the comments of Apple Snapple
THIERRY LEVY or do the right thing and buy the music to support them 🙄
@@rcecil88 agreed.!
Can you put subtitles? :(
Brits are always light years ahead of everyone else in the music world...
True
Tell that to the Delta Blues singers and jazz artists from the states who quite frankly launched all of this music from Rock to Hip-Hop and any other urban ìnfluenced music. Dont get me wrong...British and European music is crucial to so many things but to make a statement like the one you did is crap mate. Not looking to start a scrape...just making a point. Brilliant music has been coming up from all parts of the world all the time. There is no ONE place who can lay claim to it.
@@warborn_inc. also Jamaica influenced the whole world musically
4:20 LOL
spanish subtitles, please!!
Anyone knows whay they split in 2001?
They always say that there werent any fights...doubt that...Maybe Im wrong
Daddy G was on paternity leave, Mushroom had already quit the band right after Mezzanine was made
Necesito subtitulos :(
Some awkward questions/mistakes were made... But all is well.
ummm - 'interview' maybe - i wouldn't call this a documentary :P
Why is this documentary in black and white??
That chick is best singer ever what's her name
en español!
vignette effect, what for? does not improve the music and makes the video to a degree bad
41:30
so blurry
1:39:38
1:39:53
1:40:09
For when I need a belly laugh 😳🤣😭😂
song at 38:22
You probably figured it out by now, if not, the song is called: Babel
Thank you!
Ah, you're welcome. Cheers :)
You know ?
You know? Is used as a lead into the next thought it's really not a personal attack on anyone's intelligence. You guys seem to be very emotionally involved in what people you don't know at all are saying. That sad.
BANKSY ;)
Kinda glad Tricky left
Tricky wasn't in them
+Cammy yes he was
Me too. I think Tricky is better doing his solo stuff. Though, I do like his contribution to the new EP
Cameron Wilson they turned into gorillaz though. They dont do like anything they just have guests come in and rap i miss when they actually tried.
Have you listened to the spoils? Probably their best song imo. No rapping, but I agree I would like some more tracks with Robert singing.
Sinn Saan
1:20:59 🤰🤰🤰
If you don't want to be called 3D, maybe don't call yourself 3D?
3D is his nick name with his mates since his teens. As a artist being introduced to an American audience, he simply wanted his real to be used. weird that you have a problem with this Mr Etc.
Massive attack remind me about Marilyn Manson's music.
Do anyone sees the connection?
God damn...play with Lego and shut up!
I think it’s the samples , drum machines & keyboards that you may be making comparisons.
