Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Though perhaps not as relentlessly stylish as their contemporaries Underworld, Massive Attack are still easily the most influential dance-related act of the 1990s. But on this special, limited-edition boxed set, they've also got style to spare: the box itself is gloriously groovy, constructed from a heat-sensitive material that changes colour whenever somebody handles it. And then there's the music: 11 CDs, comprising 63 tracks that include album versions, B-sides and some of the best remixes around. Though the package could have fit on fewer discs--making for fewer trips to the CD player--there's ample reasons to pull the box off the shelf repeatedly: rediscovering classics like the Bond theme-ish "Sly", the relentlessly funky Brixton bass Mix of "Daydreaming" and the subversive, lustful Underdog's Angel Dust Mix of "Protection" among them. --Randy Silver


CD Description

Although long since graduated to the status of full-blown pop stars (and ones known for constructing album-length worksof sound art, with all of that format's accompanying tendency towards self-indulgence), Massive Attack have not forgotten their humble origins as a DJ collective. Accordingly, they retain a DJ's fondness for the 12" single, and over the course of their career have released enough material on vinyl to constitute a second body of work, unknown to many of their fans. This singles collection bridges the gap between thatsub-culture and the group's larger audience.
In doing so, it gives a better idea of the group's range than any otheralbum. Not only does it contain tracks from all three Massive Attack albums plus several dub versions from the NO PROTECTION project, but, celebrating the alternate universes opened up through remixing, reveals previously unexplored avenues of the Massive Attack sound. The forward-moving bassline on the Underdog remix of "Protection", for instance, somehow highlights the melancholy of the vocal even more than the slower-paced album version, while the State Of Bengal remix of"Inertia Creeps" combats inertia with excursions into drum-and-bass.

3.0 out of 5 stars Difficult to see who this singles box-set will appeal to, 28 Sep 2001
By Mr. Tim Balderstone "Tim Balderstone" (Staffordshire, GB) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
It's all very well to have such a vast array of remixes of so many superb Massive Attack singles, but it doesn't make for easy listening from start to finish. But then the dictionary doesn't make for a good read and that is how best to treat this collection; as an important reference point. Only a precious few mixes of the originals come even close in quality to the album versions. So if you are already a massive Massive Attack fan you probably own most of the singles already. And if you are fairly new to the band then do not buy this before you own the albums. That leaves this box set in no mans land really. Me...well I saw it in a second hand CD shop so parted with money to taste the Unfinished Sympathy mixes in particular. Owning and loving all the LP's I must say I was a little disappointed with the contents of this lot; fantastic in places but mainly a case of quantity over quality. You do need to be a big big fan to handle as many as 6 or 7 versions of the same track on the bounce. For completists only.

5.0 out of 5 stars Possibly the best CDs I've ever bought!, 27 Dec 1999
This would be worth every penny at twice the price. Not one dud on any of the singles, even the remixes are superb, which can't always be said about remix b-sides, which are usualy just there to fill space. Massive Attack must be one of the best groups of recent history. Who says there's no original music nowadays? A classic example of letting the music do the talking (take note, Liam!), and a scandal that this stuff doesn't get the airtime it deserves.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bloody Amazing, 17 Jan 2000
By A Customer
this set of cds is great, dont however buy it if you cant cope with 3 or more remixes of the same song, the remixes by famous artists like the Manics, Blur, Portishead and Underworld are a bonus. 5 Stars All Around Look at the value of it. 5 albums worth of music for the price of 3

3.0 out of 5 stars Some good mixes, but nothing matches the originals.
Fans expecting lots of b-sides will be dissapointed as there are only a couple. Most of the remixes don't try anything adventurous, so you're reminded that the originals are... Read more
