  • Massive Attack - Unfinished Sympathy

bosstrabs I laughed hard at that because I used to pal around with a fella who would say exactly that, just as he tapped his joint into the ashtray and passed it on shaking his head. What a fucking cunt he was.

    In all seriousness, Maxinquaye was actually the genre’s standout album.

      bosstrabs Dummy was clearly the genre’s stand out album, maxinquaye was a great album too, though very, very, very disappointing live (Though Black Steel tore the place apart if I’m honest)

        Massive Attack are dreadful live.

        All political grandstanding with not a wrecking ball in sight.

        S to the werve.

          Dummy was no way as good as Maxinquaye, or Blue Lines.

          dummy was just under 45 mins so you could fit it onto each side of a 90 min cassette for the walkman. Edit, just checked and it was 49, maybe the tapes were a bit longer than 45!

          Great story

          Smallman1 Massive Attack are dreadful live.

          False. Got to see them perform live in 2019, and it was BRILLIANT. Unfortunately this wasn’t on their playlist that night. Classic though! I would have loved to hear it live along with the rest. They make some damn fine music.

          I’m starting to realize your taste is really lacking Ed. Thoughts and prayers.

              Dan Ed likes Bryan Adams.

              I sit next to him at Chelsea!

                Trabs, threads, bants, restaurants, nights out.

                No one does it like me!

                  Smallman1 No one can at the moment ffs.

                  Trabbs LOL

                    Along_the_Wire Usually, though, when bands do their ‘famous album anniversary tour’ they play a set of the album then another set, or an encore of, some of their other hits

                        bosstrabs yep, remember primal scream belting out Rocks and Jailbird after playing Screamadelica in its entirety

                          Of course, Grant wouldn’t know from his Doves gig because everyone was bored shitless and didn’t shout for an encore, and they don’t have many hits anyway.
