Title: A tremendous disappointment from MA
Review: I'm a big fan of Massive Attack, and their three previous albums each have a distinct flavor, and addictive quality. This one is just flat, dull, and repetitive. Most bands burn out after a while, and I'm sad to say that this seems to have happened for MA. I hope that I'm wrong, and that they bounce back, but 100th Window is a big letdown. Not terrible, but certainly not up to their usual standards. 100th Window may appeal to some (it reminds me vaguely of Radiohead, whom I also find dull but others like). It's definitely different from earlier MA albums, and the first monotonous, boring album they've done. I'm all for change, but not just plain giving up.
Is the review positive or negative?
