Massive Attack have revealed how Blur frontman Damon Albarn cracked the whip when they recorded two songs together for the Bristol band's new album 'Heligoland.' They drafted in Albarn to work on two songs on the follow-up to 2003's '100th Window,' but told NME.com that Albarn was initially wary of the band's famously drawn-out methods.
'He was like, 'I want to work with you, but I'm not getting sucked into some nine-year-long Bristol dope-haze.''
Heligoland is set to be released on February 8 and Massive Attack will be supporting its release with three UK shows. Massive Attack are scheduled to play shows at Newport Centre on February 8, Brighton Dome on February 9 and the Hammersmith HMV Apollo on February 11. Tickets are still available for all of the shows.
