The South Korea performance provides the clearest guide yet to the musical direction of Massive Attack’s return to Australian stages. The show also highlighted the importance of the vocal collaborators who have helped shape Massive Attack’s sound. The inclusion of multiple Mezzanine songs reinforced the continuing influence of the album, which remains one of the most significant releases in Massive Attack’s catalogue. The decision to include covers also reflects Massive Attack’s long history of reinterpreting music through their own atmospheric approach. Massive Attack’s Australian tour begins on Thursday August 6 at Brisbane Entertainment Centre before moving to Sydney and Melbourne.
