	100th Window - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		100th Window is the fourth studio album from the Bristol-based trip-hop group Massive Attack.
		Released in 2003, it was written and produced by Del Naja and Neil Davidge, and featured the vocal talents of Horace Andy and Sinéad O'Connor.
		100th Window received a somewhat muted critical reception, many arguing that whilst Massive Attack's previous three albums had all broken significant new ground for the group, 100th Window's dark, brooding sound was merely a continuation of 1998's Mezzanine.

		Das 2003 veröffentlichte Massive Attack-Album "100th Window" stammt nur aus der Feder von Robert del Naja und Co-Produzent Davidge.
		Mit viel Verspätung brachte er schließlich "100th Window" auf den Markt, das trotz der 5-jährigen Pause seit Mezzanine nahtlos an den Vorgänger anschliesst.
		"100th Window" wird darum oft auch als del Najas Soloalbum bezeichnet.

	Opus // Music // Massive Attack - 100th Window
		"100th Window" picks up where "Mezzanine" left off, delivering a dense, thick cloud of crunchy beats, orchestral arrangements, and a sense of atmosphere capable of smothering weaker listeners.
		However, what's missing from "100th Window" is Massive Attack's voice, the element that brought focus and purpose to their sound.
		If any other band had released "100th Window", it'd be cause to celebrate; critics would be falling all over themselves, and the underground would be heralding a new talent.

	100th Window - Compare prices
		Each of their three studio albums preceding 100th Window were pioneering masterpieces, with 1991's Blue Lines acclaimed as one of the best British albums of all time.
		Ironically, 100th Window sounds as distinctly Massive Attack-like as any of its predecessors, except the low, slow raps of Daddy G and Mushroom have been replaced by the fragile voice of Sinead O'Connor.
		Of course, 100th Window is still a very good record--no-one does darkness with quite the same warmth and murkiness as Massive Attack--but this isn't half the album it could have been.

	BBC - Dance Review - Massive Attack, 100th Window
		100th Window is an incredible album and would, I think, be enjoyed by even the most casual fan of any of their past releases.
		However 100th Window is still Massive Attack, and thus so, those who say it is disappointing, merely express their own disappointment after the torturous wait between albums.
		I'm still undecided as to whether 100th Window will, with repeated listens, achieve the same delayed appreciation that Kid A and Bjork's Vespertine enjoyed (works which appear to have influenced this album enormously), or indeed if it deserves to be mentioned in such company.

		Si ce dernier risque de rester - et pour longtemps - le chant du signe fatal et sublime d'une pop atmosphérique jusqu'ici simplement digne, "100th window" fait entrer Massive Attack dans une nouvelle ère.
		Le groupe ne quittera plus le domaine des ténèbres, c'est du moins à espérer : la tonalité générale de "100th window" reste largement aussi noire que celle qui domina "Mezzanine", mais les grosses guitares qui chahutèrent le précédent album, lui donnant aussi ses moments forts, ont ici déserté.

		What 100th Window proves, however, is what we knew all along--Daddy G was the smokey dub man, 3D was the "trip" in trip-hop, late-night music with laconic psuedo-raps, and Mushroom was the DJ that brought it all together.
		In any case, 100th Window is by no means the disaster the media would like it to be.
		Still, 100th Window is sure to please the most ardent followers of this genre-defining act.

		Now reduced to a one man band, Massive Attack somehow manages to maintain the high level of proficiency which was more than evident on their landmark "Mezzanine" album from 1997.

		The rest of "100th Window" is all quite dark and very honed in it's sound.

		So I was pretty amped when I heard that they were coming out with 100th Window.
		Of course keeping expectations to a realistic minimum was important: not only were Mushroom's lusciously rich, slow as molasses MC skills long gone but Daddy G was reported to be on (hopefully temporary) leave of absence too.
		So when 100th Window's eight-minute songs feel like eight minutes, you know you need to stop and evaluate some things.

		After a couple of spins of 100th Window, the first thing you notice is the lack of a killer tune to draw you in.
		100th Window works on the level of 70-odd minutes cloying mood music that only Massive Attack and Death In Vegas have ever really managed.

		100th Window is their fourth album and the followup to Mezzanine, and the relationship between the two is immediately obvious.

		Yeah, 100th Window is all lolling rhythms and fragile slow-motion mutations.
		Near enough a solo record for 3D, on 100th Window he introduces a new element of glitch and electronica, and works it into the familiar Massive Attack sound seamlessly.
		In parts, 100th Window sounds predictably smoked-out, late-night and sinister, but equally at other times it seems pure, celestial.

		The predominant flavor of 100th Window is Asian, making for a lyrical, relaxed mood, but the vocals address the listener with creepy directness, telling "you" again and again what you're up to.
		100th Window includes a couple of drifty dullards -- unforgivable for artists who usually set the bar so high -- notably "Small Time Shot Away," which doodles and deedles like the wait-area music for an amusement park's space-coaster.
		Massive Attack fans won't be startled by anything on 100th Window, but at nine tracks, this may be the most accessible, freaky, futuristic electronic head-food album on the market.

		Equally amorphous is the identity of the group itself: Photos of the band are often dark or blurred, and its arsenal of marquee collaborators—which have included Tricky, reggae star Horace Andy, Everything but the Girl's Tracey Thorn and Cocteau Twin Elizabeth Fraser, not to mention Madonna, David Bowie and Mos Def—clouds matters even further.
		Early last year, Grant Marshall, living up to his nickname (Daddy G), took paternity leave and did not contribute to the new record, though he'll be on board for the world tour, which is slated to hit these shores in September.
		Singer-keyboardist Del Naja wrote and produced 100th Window in collaboration with keyboardist-programmer Neil Davidge—who, despite his extensive contributions, is not a member of the group.

		It also set the tone for the group's inventiveness in creating alluring dance music that prefers to be shaded in the dark.
		The eeriness pervaded their first four albums, and 100th Window enjoys a similar intensity.

	Massive Attack - 100th Window
		In between making a fuss as one of the UK music scene's most prominent anti-war protesters, Massive Attack's Robert Del Naja has found the time to release 100th Window - and with the other two core members of the Bristol band already departed, this looks like his debut solo record by any other name.
		Throughout 100th Window the production - by Del Naja and Neil Davidge - is exceptional.
		But with just a smattering of stand-out tracks involving Sinead O'Connor aside, the rest of 100th Window promises rather more than it delivers.

	* Dusted Reviews - Massive Attack *
		Unfortunately, in light of both the band's rationale for holding back new material and the amount of work obviously done over the last few years, 100th Window is something of a letdown.
		100th Window is less immediate than its predecessors, almost entirely characterized by a mood of downbeat introspection that often just washes over listeners rather than engulfing them.
		Massive Attack have always been in a class of their own so it's hard not to judge this album by the band's own lofty standards; by those criteria, 100th Window is disappointing.

		Their fourth album, the just released 100th Window (Virgin) is largely the work of Massive's ever adventurous Robert "3-D" Del Naja (along with co-writer/co-producer Neil Davidge; Grant "Daddy G" Marshall took a sabbatical during recording but will return for the band's upcoming world tour).
		But the other day I was doing the artwork for 100th Window, and because of the escalation now, again, in the Gulf, I thought maybe we should drop the "Attack" from the name again as an antiwar statement.
		On 100th Window I'd be hard pressed to name anything like that.

		However, I obviously wasn't listening the first time - a few more spins and I'm seeing 100th Window for the album that it really is. It's hard to soak it all in initially - there's a depth and breadth that is in unmistakably trademark Massive Attack territory and demands attention.

		But where Blue Lines (Virgin Records, 1991) was a stylistic homage to Bristol's vibrancy, the commentaries of Mezzanine and 100th Window stretch broadly beyond just the cultural, to reflect — in tone, tenor and texture — the mood of the times.
		Yet, unfortunately, if there's one misstep on 100th Window, it's that her talent and her range are underused.
		What's set apart all of their work, including 100th Window, is the rigor of the production.

		That guitar solo is a harbinger of mainstream elements to come, as most of 100th Window is positively lobbying for inclusion on a major motion picture soundtrack.
		The ace production and pacing is too cinematic; rather than provide ambience or an emotional landscape on which to project, these ornate cuts mandate fantasies so melodramatic, they can only come true in the movies.
		"Antistar" spends eight minutes closing 100th Window, but it might as well be opening the next Mission Impossible sequel; it sounds that much like the original theme.

	Myllyrd Fyllmore. / Review: Massive Attack, 100th Window
		And, of course, when these other reviewers dive into their reviews of 100th Window, they'll point out that there is at this point only one original member of the production collective left -- Robert del Naja (known as 3D) -- although Jamaican vocalist Horace Andy has returned for a pair of tracks.
		As Massive Attack's overall career goes, 100th Window is somewhat of an exercise in running in place.
		What ultimately hampers 100th Window, however, is that in being so serviceable it is also pretty much more of the same, breaking relatively little new ground and adding relatively little to Massive Attack's legacy.

		In 100th Window, groundbreaking production techniques cozy up to rock guitars and copious live instrumentation to create a heady mix like a vision from a visceral, sexy future.
		Interestingly enough, Robert Del Naja (3-D) produced the album primarily alone: absent are original members DJ Mushroom, who left the group in 1999, and Daddy-G, who apparently 'sat this one out.' Lush atmospherics, burbling bass and the relentless, slow breakbeat characteristic of the Massive Attack sound remain intact.
		If you aren't familiar with their work, 100th Window is a magnificent introduction to the moody, postmodern blues of Massive Attack.

		With 100th Window, Massive Attack have failed to evolve from Mezzanine, choosing to stick with the same dark, spine-tingling mood but without the fantastic beats and samples.
		100th Window works brilliantly as a chill-out album, as it is immensely relaxing, atmospheric and at times, beautiful.
		100th Window is without doubt their best album and one that I could never tire of hearing.
