New massive attack album

[bay24]

was a little underwhelmed by this when I first listened to it but just had it cranked up and am loving it! loads of layers I didn't notice the first time round (the pitfalls of having things on as background music..)
Made me realise I need to sit down and actually "listen" more, listening sessions seem to be getting a bit too few and far between of late.

Yup... Definitley agree with you there.

I thought it was good when I first heard it but after listening to it a number of times (getting louder and liuder each time

) I found it to be brilliant.

The 3rd track 'Splitting the Atom'; IMO is superb. A REAL tester for your system and the bass depth of your speakers. The guys vocals are brillisnt

the volume does seem to be going up and up!

Don't blow your speakers by the way...

Ha! good point, I have the divine comedy on now so I think they are safe... I may need to stop singing now though....

1978:I liked it from the first listen and it's a lovely album ( though quite dark ) with great mastering.

Me too. There were quite a few comments on the forum about it being "ok", "not as good as Mezzanine" etc when it first came out. But I've liked it since I owned it, and think it can quite happily stand on its own two feet.
