Happy 420!
Who knew this album is 20 years old and came out on April 20, 1998.
Talking about Massive Attack‘s third album Mezzanine
Enough has been said about the album since it was a turning point where they delve into darker territory with their trip-hop/electronica sound.
It was their most successful album to date thanks in part to the music video Teardrop.
We can debate as long as we want which is their best, Blue Lines or Protection?
As long the music is good to listen to!
Anyways I am going to give you my Top 5 songs picks from the album!
