Art unto itself, Oct 10 2008
By Spencer Smith - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The String Quartet Tribute to Massive Attack (Audio CD)
First of all, this is a string "tribute" - it's not meant to reproduce melodies exactly. It is a group's interpretation.That said, I really enjoy this CD. Separate yourself from the fact that it is a tribute to Massive Attack songs (you can barely tell what songs they are), and you will really enjoy this as a piece of art for itself. It is great to study to, or work along with.
If you didn't know better you'd think this was a good soundtrack CD - one to give Zimmer or Thomas Newman a run for their money.

A Mess, Aug 25 2006
By purelyskindeep - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The String Quartet Tribute to Massive Attack (Audio CD)
There was huge potential in this project, but it's really not been realised.They dogmatically attempt to reproduce notes and harmonies from the songs 'as is' rather than rework creatively to achieve an overall flow. Songs are also over-complicated rather than seeking a purity of sound and harmony. This really jars, as this is where Massive Attack excel. It also feels over-produced (trying to make up for poor composition?).
I was hoping for something intelligently re-worked to fit the instruments used, such as Christopher O'Riley did superbly with Radiohead. Instead, this seems to be cashing in on the name rather than getting to the heart of the music.

Nice, although it's not Massive's way..., Oct 8 2005
By I. Sarciat Siz "Peace dreamer" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The String Quartet Tribute to Massive Attack (Audio CD)
The intention is good, but it is clear that Massive Attack has not been involved in this project. They are all good covers of Massive Attack, but I miss their style in the songs...
Listmania!
