Mezzanine is the third studio album by English electronic music group Massive Attack. It is widely recognized as one of the masterpieces of the trip hop genre, and did well in the charts in many countries, although not in the USA. The album is rather melancholic, stressed by the guest vocals of inter alia Elisabeth Fraser (Cocteau Twins). My picks from this album are Angel, Teardrop, Man Next Door, Black Milk, and Group Four. My CD comes with a bonus track, Superpredators (The Mad Professor Remix), that is very much worthwhile as well.
