Massive Attack

For a lot of artists music is not only about selling records, it is way to express themselves, a way to transcend and innovate. On that particular perspective there is the Massive Attack's group standouts in my opinion. The Massive Attack's group is an English musical group that consists of Robert Del Naja(3D) and Grant Marshall (Daddy G). After meeting in the collective the Wild Bunch the two members of the group started the group in 1988. Bringing their unique touch and art background to music, the group won several awards and had critically acclaimed albums. Pretty eclectic, their genres vary from trip hop, to alternative rock, or even experimental rock. Breaking videos boundaries with refreshing and new concepts, the group is definitely an avant garde when it comes to music. The group landscape did not only focus on music, but they were quite active politically with Del Naja protesting against war in Iraq. After their most successful Mezzanine's album the group splits, and Daddy G started getting less involved with the group's projects and eventually quit the group. Even though, Del Naja inherit the lead of the group, the sound and creativity of the future albums were not affected. Most recently, the group leader Del Naja confirmed rumors of the group reunion for next year. Needless to say how influential the group has been to the musical culture as a whole, but especially for dance music. Their work will always inspire and it's timeless. Their creativity, was just through the roof and the practically never failed to impress. Massive Attack probably represents one of the biggest dance group that ever existed in my opinion.
