the odd original comment:

electronic? just because they're played on 'amp' doesn't mean they're "electronic." straight-up genre-defining trip hop's what they're about; and it is 'they', a crew of folks, a crew that indeed used to include tricky. ('this guy'? is that in reference to the one who originally posted about massive attack or massive attack the 'one and only,' the 'overrated artist?' confusions between the singular and the multiple running rampant here...) the prudent reply:

word up - not to mention the exquisite Eno mix of the 'one and only' cited above. sr -- sd
