Massive Attack's darker, more claustrophobic third album, a shift away from the soulful hip-hop-influenced trip hop of Blue Lines and Protection toward post-punk and industrial-tinged atmospheres. Built around Horace Andy's vocals on "Angel" and Elizabeth Fraser's haunting turn on "Teardrop," it topped the charts in the UK, Australia, Ireland, and New Zealand and became the band's most commercially successful record. This 180g reissue, pressed by Optimal Media in Germany, reproduces the striking black beetle cover art.
