The legendary music scene of Bristol has changed as rapidly as the seasons come and go, with new rhythms being formulated and concocted by bright minds that just seem to thrive off their climate. From past giants Roni Size to current producers like Appleblim, Joker and Gemmy, the scene has never shied away from providing the biggest talent. This can be stemmed back to the late '80s, when The Wild Bunch was formed, and onward to the '90s when the group splintered off to become the now-legendary and contextual trip-hop heroes that are Massive Attack. The group has been in a state of supposed creative limbo; since 2003's 100th Window they had not released a full-length studio album, and while 2006's Collected compilation had a few new and unreleased tracks, there was much more to be desired. After almost four years of constant rumors, guest artist lineups, and wondering what their return would sound like, Robert "3D" Del Naja and Grant "Daddy G" Marshall have returned with Heligoland, a record that will change the perception of the group's definitive "trip-hop" sound into something more abstract, stripped-down and soulful.
