Massive Attack – Unfinished Sympathy

Formed out of the Wild Bunch in Bristol in the late 80′s Massive Attack have lasted the pace more than most electronic acts formed at that time. With six albums under their belts with various line ups they are masters of the blissed out trip hop sound that came to life during the inception of the early 90′s dance culture.

The sound is summed up no better that with the all time classic “Unfinished Sympathy” from the eponymous first album “Blue Lines”. Financial support came from Neneh Cherry, who’s husband Cameron McVey also provided production expertise. Out of these early recordings came Labs favourite Tricky and well as members of Portishead, together they would emerge to create a whole new musical genre.

Sit back, relax and lets the beautiful vocal, and string arrangements take you back. Blissful yet emetional this song never fails to hit the spot.
