Well hello there and happy new year. Sorry this is my first time posting this year, but my full time job of looking for a full time job has taken precedence. In any case, I needed to stop my fervent efforts in order to share with you the beauty that is the new Massive Attack album. As a fan that has been with them since the days of Blue Lines, I am more than elated with their new release "Heligoland" (just released today). It's filled with the usual innovative sounds and haunting vocals, but I feel they've graduated to perhaps a more mature level. Tunde Adebimpe, lead singer of TV on the Radio, graces us with his voice on the first track "Pray for Rain". The beginning drags on but as it turns to just about the 3rd minute the song picks up. Later in the album we hear another familiar voice, Ms. Hope Sandoval on the eerie yet sexy track "Paradise Circus". I used to think Hope's voice was a touch winy, but the Mazzy Star songstress sounds like she has mastered her craft. I really love everything about this track...from it's cadence to it's composition. It definitely belongs on one of my infamous "Let's Make Whoopee" soundtracks. So here you are. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
