Massive Attack takes over Royal Arena with trip hop and spherical music
Massive Attack is set to perform at Royal Arena in Copenhagen on June 1, celebrating 35 years since their debut album release.
In celebration of the 35th anniversary of their debut album 'Blue Lines', Massive Attack will perform at the Royal Arena in Copenhagen on June 1. Concert organizer DTD Concerts announced the event, which will showcase material from the bandโs five albums throughout their career. Massive Attack, known for their pioneering contribution to the trip hop genre, blends elements of hip hop, electronica, jazz, soul, and funk, creating a unique sound that has captivated audiences over the years.
Formed in 1987, Massive Attack gained widespread recognition with their breakout single 'Unfinished Sympathy' four years later. Their third album, 'Mezzanine', released in 1998, features beloved tracks like 'Teardrop', 'Angel', and 'Black Milk', further establishing them as icons in the music industry. The band's last album, 'Heligoland', came out 16 years ago, showcasing their continued influence and the anticipation surrounding their upcoming concert as fans eagerly await new music amid a long hiatus from album releases.
This concert not only marks a significant milestone for the band but also highlights the enduring appeal of their music, which combines slow, hypnotic beats with a dreamy, trippy aesthetic. Massive Attack's performance is expected to be a celebration of their rich history and a nod to the evolution of the trip hop genre that remains relevant in today's music landscape.
