Massive Attack
Mezzanine (20th Anniversary 2CD Remaster)

[ Virgin / 2 CD ]

Release Date: Friday 30 August 2019

21st anniversary reissue of Massive Attack's double platinum (UK) album featuring the original album re-mastered + an album of previously unreleased dub remixes by the Mad Professor. Widely hailed as their masterpiece, and voted 15 in Q Magazine's 100 Greatest British Albums Ever (2000), Mezzanine saw the band move away from the 'trip-hop' sound they had helped define to embrace rock and electronica. Mezzanine was remastered by Tim Young at Metropolis who has worked with the band for over twenty years.
The Mad Professor remixes were originally intended to be released on a Mad Professor Mezzanine remix album - as the band had done with previous album Protection (No Protection) - yet in the end only a number of his remixes were issued as single b-sides. All 8 of the Mad Professor remixes included here are previously unreleased and include his dub mixes of 2 tracks not originally featured on Mezzanine but from the same period - Metal Banshee - a dub version of Superpredators which was a cover of Siouxie and the Banshee's Metal Postcard - and Wire, a track they recorded for the soundtrack of the film Welcome to Sarajevo.
