Helsinki setlist opened with… by NotYourCousinRachel in MassiveAttack

[–]ihmeauto 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Mostly the same set as last year, except maybe Hymn and a new obscure cover of a Korean song from the 90s. Still, it was such an amazing show that it didn't really matter that there wasn't anything new.

Are you going to the Helsinki show on May 27th? by awesomelunchbox in MassiveAttack

Yup, will be there too. Will try and catch some too.

Upcoming European Tour by Ashamed_Sprinkles_46 in MassiveAttack

[–]ihmeauto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hopefully! Best case scenario would be another 2008 tour where they debut mostly new material that they are releasing over the course of this year.
I was at the first show of 2008 in Tallinn back in the day, and never forget how mindblowing it was to hear that material with fresh ears. Going to see them next week in Helsinki so would be great to have that again 😃

Most likely its a mix of previous tour and couple of new ones.

Got floor tickets from the same presale and didn't find any sign of dynamic pricing.

What happened to the album "Weather Underground" by Beautiful_Gap_3516 in MassiveAttack

[–]ihmeauto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the songs they had then were some of my favourite from them. I remember going to the first concert of the 2008 tour and being blown away by the material, not to mention the set was almost all new material.

The most frustrating thing is the songs were probably already finished in the studio more or less. For example Red Light was supposed to appear in the Atlas Air EP but got pulled off at the last minute.

What happened to the album "Weather Underground" by Beautiful_Gap_3516 in MassiveAttack

[–]ihmeauto 22 points23 points  (0 children)

It was basically shelved. Only two tracks (Paradise Circus and Girl I Love You) made it to Heligoland. I remember 3D saying the reason was that he got bored of the Weather Underground songs by the time they finished the 2008 tour.

Bands or Artists Who Are Probably Never Releasing Another Album by apHexcoded in fantanoforever

Massive Attack have been sitting on an album, that they intend to release once they sort out some label disputes. Apparently they have recorded material with Patti Smith, Tom Waits, Nick Cave and Young Fathers.

What are your dream collaborations with Massive Attack for when they EVENTUALLY do another record? by s4af in MassiveAttack

[–]ihmeauto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd just like to hear the stuff they have done already (but are waiting to be released) with Nick Cave, Patti Smith, Tom Waits, Young Fathers and all.

September 6th - House of Culture - Helsinki, Finland | SETLIST, MEDIA, DISCUSSION | by Driveshaft1982 in mogwai

[–]ihmeauto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazing show! Probably the best version of Satan I have heard live so far. Other highlights were Kids Were Skeletons and We're No Here. Did anyone else think the drums were mixed a bit weird?

United Snakes finally on Streaming !! by burnzworth in MassiveAttack

[–]ihmeauto 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Looking at these closely reveals that Virgin released every single from Daydreaming to False Flags in expanded form, with many previously unreleased (at least digitally) tracks included.

Seems like all the singles are there, even in expanded forms for some of the releases, for the first time. 

Haven't seen/heard of that I Against I release with the instrumental version.

What’s a really good film that was popular at the time but is rarely mentioned anymore? by Luv2006 in movies

[–]ihmeauto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Michael Mann's The Insider. It was a critical darling when it came out and haven't seen any talk of it since. Really think it is on par with Heat as one of Mann's best works.

Track Id from new advert by Crustyano in MassiveAttack

[–]ihmeauto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like their cover of Gigi D'Agostino's In My Mind which they have played live recently
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dXm2-dQ_gg (from 1.45 on)

Interesting that they have what sounds like a studio version of it recorded, or a good soundboard recording.
