Massive Attack

Massive Attack

Massive Attack es una banda formada en la ciudad portuaria de Bristol, Inglaterra. Hasta la fecha han editado cinco discos. Considerados los padres del trip-hop, pese a que siempre han renegado de esa palabra, este estilo puede clasificarse como música electrónica, aunque combina elementos del jazz, rap y otros géneros como el soul y el dub jamaicano contando con una potente influencia del rock en sus ramas más oscuras. Massive Attack nació fruto de una comunidad artística denominada The Wild Bunch. En 1991 editan su primer álbum, Blue Lines, destacando los singles "Safe from harm", Unfinished Sympathy y Daydreaming. Posteriormente este disco se transformaría en uno de los discos más influyentes de la industria británica de los noventa, inspirando otros proyectos como Portishead y Morcheeba. Blue Lines se clasifició en un nuevo género musical conocido como ?Sonido Bristol?, al cual la prensa llamaría trip-hop.

Letra de Group Four
A flask I drink of sober tea...
While relay cameras monitor me,
And the buzz surrounds it does.
(Buzz surrounds,
Buzz surrounds)

Closed eyed, sky wide open.
Unlimited, girl unlimited sigh.
Elsewhere,
Indefinitely,
Far away.
Magnifies, and, deepens.
Ready to sing.
My sixth sense peacefully placed on my breath,
And listening.
(Keeps me from my hurt)
My ears know that my eyes are closed.
(Perish thoughts like contraband)

I train myself in martial arts,
As advertised,
I reinforce my softened parts,
As advertised.

See through, me little glazed lane.
A world, in myself.
Ready to sing.
My sixth sense peacefully placed on my breath...
(Flickering I roam)
And listening.
My ears know that my eyes are closed.
Ready to sing.
My sixth sense peacefully placed on my breath...
(Flickering I roam)
And listening.
My ears know that my eyes are closed.

I see to bolts,
Put keys to locks,
No boat are rocked,
I'm free to roam,
On dummy screens,
And magazines.

Closed eyed, sky wide, open.
Unlimited, girl unlimited sigh.

To think that I lay next to you,
Wasting time when I could do,
A simple job, in strip lights.
A flask I drink a sober tea...
'Till daylight sends me home.
Flickering I roam.

Daydreaming admiring being.
Quietly, open the world.
I hear the time of the starry sky...
Turning over at midnight.
Seen through me little glazed lane.
A world in myself.

Daydreaming admiring being.
Quietly open the world.
I hear the time of the starry sky...
Turning over at midnight.
