Massive Attack were part of the Bristol Sound of the 90s also including Portishead, Tricky and Roni Size. Extremely influential over the years.
Some of it also called Trip-Hop
You're forgetting Way Out West
@@matthewalvey4760 That reminds me, DJ Shadow. 🔥🔥🔥
This song ended so many festivals..
thanks guys, I just knew Portishead and Massive Attack and loved them so far.
Man Portishead gives me chills almost every time I listen to it, it's crazy.
The singer is is Elizabeth Frazer .
Shes a legend.
Fronted a band called the cocteaux twins.
Massive Attack are epic. So many timeless songs
"timeless songs" Ahhh, I see, they just go on forever and ever, never reaching a point.... ;-)
"Can't be with the one you love, then love the one you're with..."
Brad is totally right here: "A little bit is a lot when you're dealing with delicate vocals." Such a beautiful and hypnotic vocal rendition here.
Yes, that was a great quote!
For me, this reaction confirms that Brad likes the softer female vocals (see reactions for the Cranberries, Bjork, etc.). As the vocals come in, Lex blurts out "what?" Brad on the other hand is chilling with a relaxed smile on his face. It's a visible change in his face. Love it. Some other softer female vocal choices for Brad include: Cardigans, Chvrches (yes that's the spelling), The Sundays, Natalie Merchant. Let's give Brad what he wants!
I second the Cardigans and The Sundays they are both fantastic. The Cardigans' cover of Black Sabbath's "Iron Man" is so absurd but so good.
@@ICTS22 Sabbath Bloody Sabbath is another great cover
Yes. You nailed it with Brad.
Cardigans for sure. Carnival!
Ooh- Natalie Merchant (and 10,000 Maniacs) would be good. Or how about some live Tori Amos (Precious Things or Waitress live versions are much better than the album).
They should react to a Kate Bush video, I think they would both freak out to her crazy, unique brilliance (like her video for "Hammer Horror" or her performance with Dave Gilmour on "Love And Anger")
Massive Attack are up there with the most important bands in history. Every one of their albums is a master piece in its own right. Mezzanine defined a generation.
absolutely spot on mate 🏴 this was my 20,s years best time of my life 👌
@@shanebrown4146 Just did, didn't know about that film before. I guess he should have pointed out it was the Mad professor re-mix to be a real music snob.
Mezzanine is a great album, love it
Massive Attack were so far ahead of their time. So influential.
influential to who? everyone throws that word out there.
@@stich21 every trip hop artist who followed.
@@stich21 I also see "one of the most important bands in history" and "criminally underrated" all the time, too 🙄.
@@michaelduran8627 In what, the following six decades? ;) ... They were exactly of their time. Ahead of the curve, probably, but it's not like they did what others would only come around to 7-10 years later or something.
@@fryke I guess in that respect you are right. But I do hear them mentioned as an influence by newer artists all the time.
In my opinion, Portishead and Massive Attack have been some of the most beautiful songs in Trip-Hop. Nor should we detract from Dj.Shadow, Hooverphonic, Thievery Corporation, Morcheeba,...
These amongst others are required listening! 👊🏼
Shadow and his friends did a lot of amazing stuff. He worked with an artist from almost every genre I'd say, goes in any playlist.
I adore Portishead, just listened to one of their albums on shift the other day.
Thievery Corporation is freaking amazing. Been listening to them for 15 years now. Saw them live in Harrisburg, PA last September.
I've been listening to Morcheeba for over 25 years. I was working part time in a record store when their first album came out, and I got a promo copy of it. Been hooked ever since.
If you like trip hop, try the first album from a new group Hælos.
This vocalist, Liz Fraser, was the front-woman of an ethereal pop group called The Cocteau Twins. She mostly sings in pseudo-Celtic gibberish while fronting the Twins but it's so atmospheric it's like being you're being lulled by the spirit of an ancient Scottish goddess.
don't forget This Mortal Coils first stuff. song to the siren is the most well known of that stuff, 16 days is really great as well. everything that TMC did was great
It's not Liz Fraser
@@barbamalamit most certainly is -- see ua-cam.com/video/jpLt4LB2pVU/v-deo.html
@@barbamalamYeah it is Liz Fraser. She wrote and sang the lyrics. Reputedly written after her then boyfriend Jeff Buckley died by drowning.
Liz Fraser also sang on 'Felt's' Primitive painters. That's worth a listen.
Massive Attack along with Dj Shadow created the genre known in the '90s as Trip-Hop it's a mixture of downtempo Hip-Hop beats w/ Electronica fun fact the lead female vocals on this song is Elizbeth Fraser was the lead vocalist for the very influencual dream pop group The Cocteau Twins.
Cocteau Twins- Oil of Angels would be an awesome reaction.
Cocteau TWINS so so under rated....
The label Mowax and Ninja Tune propelled Trip Hop.
Love Cocteau Twins
What? Are you sure? I didn’t know that!
20 odd years later and this track still gives me goosebumps
I had similar feeling of when you drink water so cold it feels like you spilt it down your chest, but it went down my back then over my head.
This song was the opening theme to the TV show House MD. Man I miss that show
You definitely have to check out "Unfinished Sympathy" and "Angel". Two further Massive Attacks masterpieces.
Unfinished Sympathy is truly a House masterpiece!
@@User58747 it has the most infectious groove
Angel indeed.
Yess 🔥🔥
Angel aint a masterpiece
One of those songs that just kind of immediately captivates you. Otherworldly.
This entire CD was amazing. I am an extreme metal guy, but when I first heard this decades ago, I felt like a caveman first discovering the beauty of a flower....
Elizabeth Frazers voice is one of the modern wonders of the world . Check out the band she is most identified with, The Cocteau Twins. ua-cam.com/video/-jv0zRf6V4s/v-deo.html
I've yet to see any reaction channel do anything Cocteau or Liz Frazer, which is a damn shame!
Shallow Then Halo is fire!
She is the spitting image of 'Limmy' the popular Scottish comedian and streamer. They could honestly be identical twins, it's spooky.
@@Music-tg5is Eh? Naw she disnae! Wut?! 😂 Ok, I'm off to Google, the similarity has never crossed my mind! I think you might be a wee bit mad? 🙂
@@jonnylumberjack6223 JustJP has reacted to Cocteau Twins and Dead Can Dance (Post Frazer though). He does some good stuff.
damn why this generation so literal sometimes? band names, song names, just listen
glad Brad liked it and picked up on Liz Fraser's amazing vocal phrasing, dude gets it
What, millenals?
@@gsly6081 MARIE, WHERE ARE MY MINERALS??
Exactly what I was thinking. Imagine thinking the name of a band or artist is somehow gonna represent their whole, or even a little bit of their discography.
Aah, the 90's...the decade that was an explosion of innovation for different genres...trip hop (what we're listening to here), hip-hop, break beat, rave, big beat, drum and bass, house, techno, trance, chemical beats, grunge, altern rock, nu metal, madchester, britpop...the list goes on.
And with the above, you had the Seattle scene (grunge), Bristol scene (trip hop), Manchester scene (madchester), etc. This was a truly great decade...and we felt it at the time...so many great and creative artists.
I remember hearing this song starting playing over the tannoy whilst working an overnight shift with some friends....and everyone instantly went quiet and let this song play first before daring to speak again...it has that much power. Easily one of the most beautiful and haunting songs of all time.
Massive Attack you really need to try Unfinished Sympathy, Safe From Harm and I Against I featuring Mos Def. Also Manchild by Neneh Cherry who helped put Massive Attack on the map by getting them in to the studio
"Protection" should definitely go on that list, too!
@@foolwriter Chris Rock: “I stand in front of you and take the force of the blow”
Will Smith: “Protection”
Fun fact: even though the song was released in 1994, Chris and Will inspired the lyrics in 2022.
@@foolwriter agree with Protection
man, I Against I is such a banger! First heard it from Blade II, whose soundtrack is honestly better than the movie imo
Unfinished Sympathy for sure. All time fav.
It just goes to show, you can never pin people down to a certain thing. I had no idea that Brad would be all over this one, but he is so right: "Less is more". For such a quiet song, there is something powerful about it. Great pick.
British music during that late 90s/early 00s period was astonishing. Loved growing up in that era
It was astonishing during the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s too. Now, it’s shit.
I LOVE that Brad gets this, Massive Attack were part of the TRIP HOP scene in the 90's and produced some of the most interesting sounds at a time when Brit Pop was happening in the UK. Massive Attack do have heavier tunes in their repertoire - the song Angel has a heavy sound to it. However the whole TRIP HOP scene was more chill and sedate. You should try the group Portishead next, their big hit was a song called Glory Box. It's chill but has a weird hypnotic sound to it that took everyone by surprise when it came out over here in the UK.
Not their best though
@@nicksneddon2396 It was just their big commercial hit. I prefer Roads but that's probably too niche as a starting point if you're trying to introduce someone to Portishead
Oh I agree it was, however you know what it's like with these guys and electronic music - they will listen to one song from an artist then move on to someone else ( unless it's the vengaboys or someone equally as awful 😭 ). I would nominate Numb, Sour Times, Silence or even Machine Gun and be done with it 🤣🤣🤣
This kind of juxtaposition is the inspiration behind trip-hop. It's hip hop beats with trance vocals.
Go through their discography, I am a guitar dude, but this band, they hit the good nerv. What a band Karmacoma, protection, group four, inertia creeps, paradise circus, unfinished sympathy , safe from harm. Just pick a song, you cant lose 🙂 And they are close friends of Banksy, or he is Banksy.
Robert from Massive Attack is likely Banksy, yeah.
@@Delboy219 wow I didn’t know people thought they are the same person
Mind literally blown right now!!!
Trip Hop - get into it Brad & Lex. It’s a vibe. Morcheeba - “Trigger Hippie” is quintessential. Love the whole Big Calm album, especially “The Sea”. Music will transport you to new realms. 🤘🏼🎧🤟🏼
This a genre that came from Bristol, U.K. known as ‘trip hop’. Other big artists are portishead, morcheeba, air & zero 7 👍
AIR are french...
Tricky.
@@module79l28 and brilliant.
@@module79l28 I said the genre came from Bristol, not that every artist I then mentioned did 😂👍
Portishead, Air & Zero 7...Glory Box, All I Need & Destiny. Lex & Brad, do your ears a favour.....
Morcheeba.....hmmm?! Not for me
Brad is feeling it. It's a great vocal performance and the song in a whole is amazing.
Brad loves TRIP HOP .... There's soooooo much more music for him to explore in this time of late 90's Trip Hop, Electronica, House, Trance .... His cerebral approach to music is what is fueling his interest ...
"A massive attack with a feather." You know, there's the old saying "an iron fist in a velvet glove," which now that I think about it, is the PERFECT description of the tone of a MA song...
This is one of the most beautiful songs i've ever heard. Gets me everytime.
The song was the theme song for the TV medical drama House.
“Unfinished Sympathy” was always my favourite…they are such a mood…I ❤️ them!
It's one of to the greatest tracks ever made 👍🏻
The best 👌
The girl who sings in this song is Liz Frazer . She is the vocalist of the 80's band Cockteau Twins , you can check one their songs Carolyn's fingers .
Massive Attack is one of my favourite bands! Fantastic spectrum from cool and edgy, thrilling, gentle, dreamy.... They have the magic tension in their songs but a wide spectrum of timbres, voices, rhythms etc. There are very few bands with such a wide spectrum, but maybe you shouldn't think of them as a classic band, but also as a great music project with many great different guest musicians and artists. To make it short - I guess you will experience some unexpected moments of excitement with them! And they are a fantastic live band
Check out the newer band Hælos. Their first album and the song “Earth not Above” just crush.
Whooh! At last you're doing Massive Attack from my home city. Peace and love from Bristol, UK.
Listen to the atmosphere created... it's a great vibe. The heartbeat's so obvious and the beeping medical machinery sound. Other great Trip-hop numbers are 'Utopia' by Goldfrapp, 'God is a DJ' by Faithless and 'Overcome' by Tricky.
Are you sure God Is a DJ is trip hop?? I would have said it's more straight up house/trance myself
No way God Is A DJ can be classified as triphop, way too pacey and not laidback enough.
Newer, “From Earth not Above” by Hælos.
Faithless gets labeled Trip Hop, but if you actually listen to his music, 90% of it is very far from Trip Hop, most of it is Dance music lol.
Goldfrapp agreed, definitely Trip Hop. Listen to "Felt Mountain"
Tricky, definitely Trip Hop, id probably just listen to "Maxinquaye" though, and even then theres only maybe a couple GOOD songs on it.
song was written for jeff buckley who had just died ..and elizabeth wrote it very fast to say goodbye to her friend
Brad feels music, Lex doesn't, it's as simple as that. Even if you aren't a fan of this type of music the ambiance of the atmospheric backing hits you immediately and the subtle, delicately nuanced vocals are a rare treasure to find.
As a lover of metal I normally wouldn’t like stuff like this but from what I’ve heard of Trip hop in the past I actually like alot of it.
Try Portishead.
Metaller here, same. Love Massive Attack and Portishead. Also enjoy some dance/electronic acts like Rudimental and Elderbrook.
I think it comes down to substance for me. If it means something, has good composition and a creative direction, I tend to appreciate it.
I'm the same with more "mainstream" acts. I generally can't stand popular music, but artists like Florence + the Machine get my attention because there's clearly meaning to it.
Try Dissolved Girl of the same album. It's got some metal elements in there as well.
They have watched the live version of Roads, but they werent that keen.
I find metal/Alt metal and Triphop have a lot in common and sorta dances with the dark seductive vibe of things. Metalhead here but love alt metal and triphop and shit like this. Just gets me in that vibe y'know?
"Angel" (particularly *with* the video) and "Karmacoma" were fairly well known and good, too.
I'm a real fan of the 70's, you know, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, David Bowie, Queen, Genesis with Peter Gabriel in the 70's... And the trip hop gave me the same feeling after, Massive Attack, Morcheeba... They gave the same feeling in another way... I love that song, and the singer also sang for Morcheeba
I’m with Brad on this one. A little is a lot with these vocals and the beat. Great song.
its probably worth mentioning this isnt actually the singer for Massive Attack, this singer is actually Elizabeth Fraser from another great band "Cocteau Twins".
Makes me want to walk with a cane, figure out medical mysteries, and make some sarcastic remarks.
The singer used to be with Cocteau Twins ('80s, '90s darkwave, new wave Gothic post-punk/alt rock band). Then went on to Massive Attack in the '90s, '00s. This is trip-hop which is popular genre since the '90s to current times. It's like chill psychedelic jazzy hip hop, alt rock. Bands like Portishead, Sneaker, Lana Del Rey, PJ Harvey, FKA Twigs, Morcheeba, etc. Lot of Bjorks music is trip hop sounds, too. 🎶 Also Royksopp, Lorde, Kate Bush, etc has some influences.
Lot of rappers have ventured on to trip-hop influences, too.
"Angel" by Massive Attack is a banger, check it out guys! Also "Paradise Circus"
With Trip hop you can't expect explosions, that is the essence of trip hop
This is the essence of trip hop.
You should check out portishead next. Glory box or sour times, I reckon.
I'll second that, as I came down here to suggest the same things!
Thirded!
Machine gun, for sure, after you get past the requisites from the '90s
Ahhh Trip Hop, another U.K. 90’s genre 🖤
You guys need to educate yourself on music and genres outside of America. Massive Attack have been around for 3 decades and have sold tens of millions of records. They were one of the instigators of the trip hop scene in the UK. Remember that America isn’t the best all and end all of music, and music doesn’t have to be heavy or hard to be sublime. I’ve not watched much of you guys but I’m guessing you’re supposed to be some kind of experts in the music scene, so to not have heard Massive Attack is crazy.
Angel, Protection, and so many more...love MA
Thanks for playing Massive Attack. Now I have to subscribe. Love you guys.
Trip hop is such a great rabbit hole to go down. Nobody reacts to the criminally underrated Morcheeba. The whole of the Bristol and south west sound just keeps giving and giving. One of my favourite bands The Heavy are from there
A 'massive' song when it originally dropped. Love the trip hop :)
Also the opening for House, medical drama
Literally every song on this album is a banger; Cocteau Twins is also a band that hasn't graced your channel yet, and if you love unique Scottish singing voices, look no further.
@@shanebrown4146 Depends if we wanna introduce them to goth Twins first (start with Treasure stuff, Ivo, Lorelei, Aloysius) or start them with Carolyns Fingers (their first mainstream hit) and move into Vegas stuff (Cherry, Iceblink, Heaven), and beyond (Bluebeard, Tishbite).
I received this as a cassette back in the 90s with my copy of Alternative Press magazine. I'm a huge, huge fan of metal, but this band really hit the spot for me. Keep listening to trip-hop it grows on you, so many layers.
The synchronized swaying was very much the vibe of this.
If you two are digging this, keep going with the trip-hop suggestions people have mentioned.
It's not just the vocals.
With such minimalist production and instrumentation, the most subtle changes go a long way to create a flowing hypnotic vibe.
A more recent song by Massive Attack that hits a bit differently is "The Spoils". I find it quite beautiful and emotionally deep.
Vocals by the wonderful Hope Sandoval.
This is a chilling in the sun with a cocktail track!
This song is so sad. When she recorded her vocals she had just learned that morning that her ex bf whom the song is about and who she loved dearly had died of an accidental drowning. He was an amazing singer too. You should check him out. Jeff Buckley - Grace (title track) is a great place to start.
Really? This is about Jeff Buckley? That’s crazy.
Wow….had no idea…
"I was expecting a massive attack, but it's like a little tickle." Oh my goodness, that was funny.
Watch the official video for this song, it's one of the most beautiful and moving videos ever made. Made in the 90s when some artists where still creating thoughtful and artistic videos!
24 years later............now i know what the words actually are... never was all that invested in figuring them out........that is........UNTIL BRAD AND LEX CAME ALONG!! LOLOL
Mezzanine is one of the best albums made, I'd put it up there with some of the best classic rock. Very creative, lot's of variety and very influential. You MUST hear more especially from this album.
Seeing as tonight is Trip Hop night (apparently) try Portishead - Glory Box. Brad would be all over it
A lot of people think that the member of this band, known as “3D”, is actually (if not, heavily inspired) the graffiti artist Banksy. Also, he’s the inspiration for 2D from the Gorillaz
Loved this song back then, more recently discovered that this song is great for breath exercises when your ribs are broken or bruised and you need to breathe deeply despite the pain.
Massive Attack, Mezzanine is one of the top 10 albums of all time. Trip Hop is a vibe. Bands like this and Portishead. Many babies made.
Singer is Liz Fraser from Cocteau twins... band Ive been listening to since college in the 90s.
You gotta do Angel. You've probably heard it before, but maybe not known it was Massive Attack. They make such beautiful music. There's such depth to their instrumentation that the songs feel full, deep and timeless. Harmonies, melodies and rhythm off the charts. You'll see. Looking forward to the next one!
Hard agree. It definitely qualifies as heavy, so I think Lex will like it more.
Hard agree. It definitely qualifies as heavy, so I think Lex will like it more.
Blue Lines is such a classic album...
Please do more Massive Attack they're sooooooo good when you delve into them. And of course, check out more from Portishead ✌️
did they check out portishead, I must have missed it
@@Minuz1 ua-cam.com/video/S-40kCgGjNQ/v-deo.html yes the live version of Roads ✌️
Don't forget Morcheeba, please
One of the best songs of the 90s
Try unfinished sympathy next. You will love it. Greetz from Belgium.
Massive attack is one of my all time favorites. Go down the rabbit hole. You will not be disappointed.
Massive Attack are a great act, with so many amazing tracks, but the one you absolutely have to listen to is Protection, featuring Tracy Thorn from Everything But The Girl. It's one of the best songs ever recorded imo
Totally agreed. An extraordinary song.
And not to mention the incredible music video which plays with your mind...I still have no idea how they managed to film that 😬
A true classic tune. Jose Gonzales done a really great cover of this also
Elizabeth Fraser is amazing, both with the Cocteau Twins (check out Lorelei or Pandora) and This Mortal Coil (Song of the Siren). In many cases it is not what she is actually saying but how she uses her voice as an instrument that is the most interesting part. Massive Attack has many great songs as well and used many different guest vocalist in their songs. You usually can't go wrong with Massive Attack songs but some of my faves are "Protection", "Safe from Harm" "Five Man Army' and "Unfinished Symphony"
This is a song you listen to in a warm bath with your eyes closed.
Love this song. There's also a great cover version by José González, which was used excellently in The Last Dance (Chicago Bulls Docuseries, which was amazing)
The Jose Gonzales cover really is awesome 👏
Aurora’s cover is outstanding….If you haven’t heard it, check it out.
@@w.geoffreyspaulding6588 wow don’t know this at all thanks 🙏
And now it's time for a little trip hop genre... next Unfinished Sympathy, Angel, Safe From Harm, Protection, Karmacoma...
That's Liz Frazier from the Cocteau Twins on vocals, one of my favorite 90's groups. Also recommend that you guys check on The Kelly Family, a European group of siblings who sing with the most beautiful, heavenly voices. I sent you super chat about The Kelly Family on your last live stream but I think I fell asleep before it was read.
She sang the lament for Gandalf in Lorien in “The fellowship of the Ring”.
Cocteau Twins have lots of great songs. Blood Bitch is a great one.
Oh god I forgot about Kelly family. Why would you do this to me
@@Tanatie Never forget about the Kelly Family!!!
A cover of this song was used on The Last Dance basketball documentary. When the Bulls win the title on Father's Day. It's a very moving song, combined with the original video, it's a true work of art. Absolutely beautiful.
It's also the theme song for House MD
The vocals on this song were provided by Elizabeth Fraser. She has an absolutely stunning voice, which is given free rein on "Song to the siren". ua-cam.com/video/HFWKJ2FUiAQ/v-deo.html
She wrote the lyrics after hearing of the death of her friend Jeff Buckley - one of many artists who covered Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah".
@@peckish_tooth6515 lyrics were already written, she was recording the vocals when she knew about Jeff's death. She dedicated the song to him tho, that's true
Ok context, in the UK, a massive is a group of people (gang). This group changes vocal artists every song. Listen to more and you'll see how varied they are both in vocals and intensity
Also check out "live with me", "protection" and "unfinished sympathy" by them. All killer songs.
The instrumental of this is used in some commercials and TV suspense dramas. US dramas House M.D and Prison Break used the instrumental track a lot.
Aurora's cover of Teardrop is amazing too. She's an artist you guys should also be diving into. Incredible voice, she gives me chills every time I listen to her
Yeah... the Aurora one is just... unreal.
1:00 Brad: This sounds like my precious Alanis!
(I first heard this as the theme to House.)
Never heard much from these guys, but this song always reminds me of the intro for House, MD. Great series and a great intro tune.
I think the instrumental of this song IS the theme of the House intro.
Was waiting for someone to bring up the House theme. It is this song. I think they used another one in the series, or maybe just a different part of the song.
Trip-hop FTW!
If you want Massive Attack with more of an edge, try listening to "Dissolved Girl", same album, brilliant!
Bought the album because this song was in The Matrix, but not on The Matrix’s soundtrack. Amazing song (as were all the songs on that album).
One of the best/diverse groups in sound- all hail the kings
You need to listen Risingson, Angel, Daydreaming, Protection, and other songs of Massive Attack, they are great
I love that brad likes this softer vibe and lex loves the heaviest songs lol
Aurora's cover of this is amazing
I love this entire album, it was such a gift to see them perform at the Hollywood, Palladium a few years ago.
